[Samba] Samba-tool error after update to 4.12.0

[Alex MacCuish]

No. It's not about stopping samba during make install. You would still 
see the issue because make install doesn't remove what's already there. 
Those instructions are good for a first time install, but the second 
time, you need to remove the ldb modules as Andrew said. The easiest way 
I find is just moving everything somewhere else and copying state back 
after running make install.
