I am having trouble compiling samba-3.0.25b on Slackware-11.0, this
is the error message I get:

=======================

The last version of samba I have successfully compiled is
samba-3.0.23d,
I have had not success compiling any of the samba-3.0.25* versions.
However samba-3.0.25a has been released as a patch for Slackware-11.0,
so it seems it must be possible to compile it.

Any clues or tips?

Note some additional things I have installed, if that would make any
difference:
nss_ldap-255
openldap-2.3.37
kernel 2.6.20.7

Thanks,
Leigh.

Why are you trying to compile it?

Yes. Install the package/patch. No compiling needed.

There is no samba-3.0.25b installation package/patch, the latest official
package I could find is samba-3.0.25a!

Yes, S12 has b, not S11.

Not wise mixing S12 packages on S11 due to new toolchain.

mount.h, where your problem lies. should be investigated.

Try this... (this is from an S12 installation)
$ grep "usr/include/sys/mount.h" /var/log/packages/*
/var/log/packages/glibc-2.5-i486-4:usr/include/sys/mount.h
(this is from S11)
/var/log/packages/glibc-2.3.6-i486-6:usr/include/sys/mount.h

If it shows up in more than one package, you overwrote the glibc version.

The lines with your error message
It should be part of the glibc package. In addition, please look at the
build script used and emulate it. Check for incompatibilities between your
kernel and glibc with samba (see samba.org).

S11 uses glibc 2.3.6 and S12 uses glibc 2.5. That could be affecting your
results.

Try downloading the S12 build script for Samba and use the Samba 3.0.25b
tarball.

Good luck

I see. And what, exactly, does the .25b version offer that's so
critically needed?

Probably not much really, but I have itchy fingers; I can't resist
trying to install a new version. Also I just like compiling stuff
myself, a bit strange I guess.

According to the Release Notes (on www.samba.org):

There is a more detailed list too, but that's about a page long.

But 3.0.25b _has_ been out since June 26 already!

Fixed my own problem with the following patch:

There was some sort of imcompatiblity problem between
<sys/capability.h> (installed by FreeRock Gnome, included by
"system/capability.h") and <sys/mount.h> (included by
"system/filesys.h"). But seemed to work if capability.h
was included after "system/filesys.h".
