Hello Trend,

I've already send an answer with the requested files, but it's still 
waiting for a moderator's approval (because of the size). So I send the 
text-content once more without attachments.


thanks alot, that was very helpful. I've added the dependency ccan-hash 
to samba-util and now it's compiling and linking. Unfortunately the 
library-dependency-check still fails while checking libntdb.so.0.

dpkg-shlibdeps: error: no dependency information found for 
/home/nils/build2/samba4/debian/tmp/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/samba/libntdb.so.0 
(used by debian/python-samba/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/samba/libdbwrap.so).

That (and some other hints) gave me the impression, it might not have 
been a good idea, to reactivate DISABLE_NTDB and so I've tried to find 
another way. Unfortunately: without DISABLE_NTDB, it wouldn't start 
compiling and keeps asking for ntdb >= 0.9 to be already installed. I 
don't understand waf very well and I haven't found out yet, what's 
causing that.

I'll attach the files you've asked for. The debian.tar.gz still contains 
the deactivated patches I've used to disable ntdb. I'd be happy if you 
have any idea, what the problem is, but you don't have to spend your 
time, poking around in my files (I guess that would take hours). You did 
me a huge favour already. I will definitely check out the resources you 
recommended.

Thank you very much, nice regards, bbb
