Hi All,

I have done an update build of samba-4.16.0 which built fine after the installation of a new dependency perl-JSON.

My question is regarding the rootfile changes shown in the samba file in the log directory. Many of the libraries now have no version number and are replaced by just a .so file

As an example libasn1-samba4 has the following removed -usr/lib/samba/libasn1-samba4.so.8 -usr/lib/samba/libasn1-samba4.so.8.0.0

and replaced by +usr/lib/samba/libasn1-samba4.so

This is probably not a bad idea from their point of view. Those libraries don’t need to be versioned, because at a time, you can only have one version of samba installed.

So we need to ship them all.

There is no mention of any changes to the lib files in the Whats New file in the source tarball or on the samba website that I have been able to find.

I want to be sure that this is not occurring because of some error I have made somewhere.

Attached below is the whole of the samba logfile showing the new files and the files being removed.

Regards,

Adolf.
