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

Because AD is a critical point in IT infrastructures and because Samba4 is
under heavy development.

Some could need new features so they would have to compile.
Some wants to test new features, to help Samba team in testing. They'll
have to compile.

Both could face issues. To discuss about these issues they must have a
reproducible environment.

Some would test / need some very particular features, needing very
particular compilation options.
Most of us would test / need standard stuffs. In these cases a standard
(way of compilation of the) software is better: some others people here can
have the same environment to try reproduce the issue without the need to
reproduce the environment.

I must insist: all this is because Samba Team is working too hard and too
well. If they would push one little update every two years, we would be
able to rely on distribution packages : )
