|||
To build: |
|||
Check out the official Debian packaging: |
|||
git clone git://git.debian.org/pkg-samba/samba4 samba4-unstable |
|||
Samba is not a native Debian package, so you will need to create |
|||
an .orig.tar.gz tarball. Run: |
|||
./debian/rules get-orig-source |
|||
This will create the .orig.tar.gz file in your working directory. |
|||
Move this directory to ../tarballs: |
|||
mkdir ../tarballs && mv *.orig.tar.gz ../tarballs |
|||
You can now use git-buildpackage or dpkg-buildpackage to build the Debian package: |
|||
$ git-buildpackage |
|||
or: |
|||
$ dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot |

==== contributed, not official FAQ ==== |
|||
Q: This sources are old: 4.0.0~rc6+dfsg1-1 (Tue, 4 Dec 2012). There are newer versions planned for Debian7 (stable)? |
|||
A: In short: No, read https://lists.samba.org/archive/samba-technical/2013-April/091878.html |
|||
Q: What is the best way to get a newer Debian7 package, without recompiling the sources? |
|||
A: Depends, the lazy way is using enterprisesamba packages, but you have to register there (consider to build your own packages, ie. dh-make) |
