Quite probably :-)

This is the config from debian/rules:

--prefix=/usr --enable-fhs --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var 
--with-privatedir=/var/lib/samba/private 
--with-smbpasswd-file=/etc/samba/smbpasswd --with-piddir=/var/run/samba 
--with-pammodulesdir=/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)/security --with-pam 
--with-syslog --with-utmp --with-pam_smbpass --with-winbind 
--with-shared-modules=idmap_rid,idmap_ad,idmap_adex,idmap_hash,idmap_ldap,idmap_tdb2,vfs_dfs_samba4,auth_samba4 
--with-automount --with-ldap --with-ads --with-dnsupdate 
--libdir=/usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH) 
--with-modulesdir=/usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)/samba 
--datadir=/usr/share --with-lockdir=/var/run/samba 
--with-statedir=/var/lib/samba --with-cachedir=/var/cache/samba 
--disable-avahi --disable-rpath --disable-rpath-install 
--bundled-libraries=NONE,pytevent,iniparser,roken,wind,hx509,asn1,heimbase,hcrypto,krb5,gssapi,heimntlm,hdb,kdc,com_err,compile_et,asn1_compile 

--builtin-libraries=replace,ccan,samba-cluster-support 
--minimum-library-version="$(shell ./debian/autodeps.py 
--minimum-library-version)" --with-cluster-support

OK, it is from 4.3.5 and I am fairly sure 'pam_smbpass' doesn't exist 
anymore, it will also build everything, including the AD DC, but I hope 
you can see that your configure line just isn't enough.

If you can wait a while, I think the plan is to get 4.4.2 trickled down 
from experimental (it has got 4.4.1 at the moment, but that is another 
one that says 'do not use' )
