I only can add a general and installation, because distros have
different package managers and you can run into dependencies problems.
For example, when you uninstall Samba, cifs-utils is also automatically
removed - even if you don't want to compile this yourself.

I will see if I find a place where this general information fits tonight.

Regards,
Marc
