NEW FEATURES/CHANGES
|
||||
====================
|
||||
|
||||
LDB no longer a standalone tarball
|
||||
----------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
LDB, Samba's LDAP-like local database and the power behind the Samba
|
||||
AD DC, is no longer available to build as a distinct tarball, but is
|
||||
instead provided as an optional public library.
|
||||
|
||||
If you need ldb as a public library, say to build sssd, then use
|
||||
./configure --private-libraries='!ldb'
|
||||
|
||||
This re-integration allows LDB tests to use the Samba's full selftest
|
||||
system, including our knownfail infrastructure, and decreases the work
|
||||
required during security releases as a coordinated release of the ldb
|
||||
tarball is not also required.
|
||||
|
||||
This approach has been demonstrated already in Debian, which is already
|
||||
building Samba and LDB is this way.
|
||||
|
||||
As part of this work, the pyldb-util public library, not known to be
|
||||
used by any other software, is made private to Samba.
