Notes:
* Before Debian 8 and Ubuntu 14.04, <code>libgnutls28-dev</code> was known as <code>libgnutls-dev</code>.
* libgnutls-dev has been replace by libgnutls28-dev on Debian 8 Jessie and Ubuntu >=14.04
* perl-modules was replace by perl-modules-5.24 on Debian 9
* perl-modules was replace by perl-modules-5.26 on Ubuntu 17.10
* python-gpgme and python3-gpgme were replaced by python-gpg and python3-gpg on Debian 9 and Ubuntu 17.10
* If you are building Samba on a system that uses systemd, you will also require the libsystemd-dev package
* If you are building Samba on a system that uses systemd, you will also require the libsystemd-dev package
* To use a [[Running a Samba AD DC with MIT Kerberos KDC | MIT Kerberos KDC]], you will need <code>libkrb5-dev</code> and <code>krb5-kdc</code>, version 1.15.1 or greater.
* If you are building Samba >= 4.5.0, you will also require libgpgme11-dev python-gpgme python-m2crypto
* Due to a bug in the Debian <code>xsltproc</code> package ([https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=750593 Debian Bug #750593]), Samba fails to build the <code>smb.conf</code> man page and a <code>Segmentation fault</code> error is displayed on 32-bit platforms. To work around the problem:
:* Open the <code>docs-xml/wscript_build</code> file in the Samba source code.
:* Find this line:
' if ('XSLTPROC_MANPAGES' in bld.env and bld.env['XSLTPROC_MANPAGES']):'
:* Remove or comment out the following line:
SMBDOTCONF_MANPAGE(bld, 'manpages/smb.conf.5')
:* Start compiling the Samba sources. Please note, this will produce a build without a default smb.conf.

If the DC should act as print server (not recommended) with CUPS back end, additionally install:
=== Gentoo ===


# yum install cups-devel
Please note that the following sections assume at least an intermediate understanding of the Gentoo packaging system.


==== Fedora ====


To install the build dependencies for Samba on Fedora, run the following command:


# dnf builddep libldb samba
==== Python ====


==== openSUSE ====
Gentoo uses Python 3 as the default python interpreter, but at this time Samba requires Python 2 (2.4.2 or later). The following set of commands will install and set up Python 2 as the default python interpreter.


# zypper source-install --build-deps-only libldb1 samba
# emerge --ask --noreplace '<dev-lang/python-3'
# eselect python set python2.7
# python-updater


==== Gentoo ====


See [[Package_Dependencies_Required_to_Build_Samba/Building Samba on Gentoo|Building Samba on Gentoo]]


==== Kerberos ====
=== Samba Domain Member ===


==== Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 / CentOS 8 ====
On Gentoo, you have two choices for a kerberos implementation, app-crypt/mit-krb5 and app-crypt/heimdal. Unfortunately the two implementations can not be installed at the same time. Currently, the Samba only supports app-crypt/heimdal. So you must first uninstall app-crypt/mit-krb5, if installed. Then install app-crypt/heimdal and rebuild any packages that were using the previous kerberos implementation.


Install the following packages to build Samba as a domain member on a minimal Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8 or CentOS 8 installation:
# emerge --unmerge --ask app-crypt/mit-krb5
# emerge --ask app-crypt/heimdal
# revdep-rebuild -- -ask


# yum install autoconf automake docbook-style-xsl gcc gdb jansson-devel \
krb5-devel krb5-workstation libacl-devel libarchive-devel \
libattr-devel libtasn1-tools libxslt lmdb-devel make openldap-devel \

==== BIND ====

To enable automatic zone management, net-dns/bind and net-dns/bind-tools should be emerged with the USE flags for berkdb, dlz and gssapi set. To enable them permanently, add the following to /etc/package.use:

net-dns/bind berkdb dlz gssapi
net-dns/bind-tools gssapi

Then, emerge net-dns/bind:

# emerge --ask net-dns/bind net-dns/bind-tools




For enabling PowerTools repository on CentOS 8, please use following commands:
==== Samba-supplied Libraries (tdb/ldb/tevent) ====


# yum -y install dnf-plugins-core
There are a few Samba libraries that need to be installed. Note that these packages might be keyworded as unstable, so you might need to add the following to your /etc/package.keywords:
# yum config-manager --set-enabled PowerTools


If the domain member should act as a print server with CUPS back end, additionally install the following package:
~sys-libs/tevent-0.9.17
~sys-libs/tdb-1.2.10
~sys-libs/ldb-1.1.12
~sys-libs/talloc-2.0.7


# yum install cups-devel
Additionally, Samba requires sys-libs/tdb and sys-libs/talloc to be emerged with the USE flag python set. To enable this permanently, add the following to /etc/package.use:

sys-libs/tdb python
sys-libs/talloc python

Note: In new(er) installations of Gentoo, the above files will be located in /etc/portage/, i.e. /etc/portage/package.keywords and /etc/portage/package.use. They may be symlinked to /etc for backward compatibility.

Now, emerge the packages:

# emerge --ask '=sys-libs/talloc-2.0.7' '=sys-libs/tdb-1.2.10' '=sys-libs/tevent-0.9.17' '=sys-libs/ldb-1.1.12'

Note that ebuilds for the required versions of the above packages might not be availiable in the portage tree. In this case, check [https://bugs.gentoo.org/ Gentoo's Bugzilla] for updated ebuilds.



==== Other Misc. Build/Run Dependencies ====

To ensure a successful Samba 4 installation, there are a few other packages that should be installed, as shown below:

# emerge --ask net-libs/gnutls sys-apps/acl dev-libs/cyrus-sasl dev-python/subunit dev-python/dnspython net-dns/libidn

FIXME: Are dev-python/dnspython net-dns/libidn still required?

Operating System-independent Overview

The following is an operating system-independent list of libraries and utilities required to build and install Samba. Depending on your distribution, the name of packages can differ. Usually library packages are named lib*-devel or lib*-dev. For a list of distribution specific package installation commands, see Distribution-specific Packages Required to Build Samba.


Mandatory

Libraries and utilities Required for
python3 Several utilities, such as samba-tool and the build system (Waf), are written in Python 3.x.
perl
Parse::Yapp Used in PIDL, our IDL compiler.
acl Required only on Samba Active Directory domain controllers and member servers using Windows ACLs.
xattr Required only on Samba Active Directory domain controllers and member servers using Windows ACLs.
gnutls >= 3.4.7 Required for cryptography
zlib Provides the crc32 checksum across Samba and compression for DRSUAPI (AD replication)

Optional

Libraries and utilities Required for
krb5-devel and krb5-server MIT Kerberos support (Samba 4.7 and later). Requires MIT Kerberos 1.15.1 or later.
blkid
dbus vfs_snapper
jansson-devel Audit logging (Samba 4.7 and later), Samba AD DC
readline
bsd or setproctitle Process title updating support.
xsltproc or docbook Man pages and other documentation.
pam-devel PAM support. For example, to authenticate domain users using PAM.
cups CUPS printer sharing support.
openldap NT4 Domains support, including the Samba NT4 to AD migration (Classic Upgrade).

Selftest

The following additional packages / utilities are required only for running some tests.

Libraries and utilities Required for
bash Some blackbox tests are bash-specific
python-markdown Reading Microsoft AD schema from github
patch Running some AD DC database tests

Packages Required to Build Samba

Verified Package Dependencies

These links are to https://git.samba.org and are to our tested package installation scripts. The files are are contained in Samba's official git repository and are subject to Samba's Code Review and testing.

Naturally, you should still check them before running them as root. They may contain more packages than you strictly need, because some items required by Samba's GitLab CI and autobuild tooling are not needed in production.

Manually maintained Distribution-specific Package lists

This list is for older Samba versions (4.10 and earlier) and distributions not included in the table above


Samba Active Directory Domain Controller

The following installation commands include the BIND DNS server. If you are using the Samba internal DNS server, omit the BIND package(s). However, you require the package containing the nsupdate utility to enable dynamic DNS support.


Debian / Ubuntu

# apt-get install acl attr autoconf bind9utils bison build-essential \
  debhelper dnsutils docbook-xml docbook-xsl flex gdb libjansson-dev krb5-user \
