[Samba] Sernet 4.3.X package is no longer free :/

Mailing lists often don't like manually compiled software, too much
different choices to try to reproduce errors. That's why Sernet's package
are a great choice: we can install more recent versions than the one
offered by our system packager and still be able to discuss here about our
issues.

It seems Sernet Team uses --enable-fhs (coupled with --prefix=/usr
--sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var) for configure script before
compiling.

Are these options sufficient? Should we add more to obtain something close
enough of Sernet's versions?

Cheers,

mathias
