These exposed the private LDB modules API to python, and was untested and broken since LDB was made async internally as it never called ldb_wait() on the result. Signed-off-by: Andrew Bartlett <abartlet@samba.org> Reviewed-by: Douglas Bagnall <douglas.bagnall@catalyst.net.nz>

Release Announcements
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
This is the first pre release of Samba 4.21. This is *not*
|
|
intended for production environments and is designed for testing
|
|
purposes only. Please report any defects via the Samba bug reporting
|
|
system at https://bugzilla.samba.org/.
|
|
|
|
Samba 4.21 will be the next version of the Samba suite.

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.
|
|
|
|
LDB Module API Python bindings removed
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The LDB Modules API, which we do not promise a stable ABI or API for,
|
|
was wrapped in python in early LDB development. However that wrapping
|
|
never took into account later changes, and so has not worked for a
|
|
number of years. Samba 4.21 and LDB 2.10 removes this unused and
|
|
broken feature.
