Many of the libraries are sensitive to version requirements,
especially if you activate the "dc" options and expect to use Samba as
a full domain controller. It's helpful to make sure your Linux version
is very recent. RHEL 7, for example, does not have a recent enough
version of the "gnutls" libraries to build Samba 4.4, and updating
gnutls to the needed gnutls-3.4.7 means upgrading dozens if not
hundreds of other components. It can be much, much easier to build an
earlier major release of Samba 4, such as Samba 4.3, if you run into
library version problems.
