Yeah, that's an option too.

At the moment I've got my desktop at home running two LXC instances, one
Ubuntu 14.04, the other 16.04 beta, and I'm grabbing sources with one
using `apt-get source` and doing builds on the other with
`dpkg-buildpackage`.

I'll be building samba-4.3.3+dfsg shortly for AMD64, and I'll happily
provide the .debs if anyone here is interested.
