Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and Samba4 full release

[karolo]

Hi,

Wondering does anyone know if Ubuntu 12.04 LTS server will get the full release version of Samba4 server in the repository now that the Samba team have released it?

I see that it currently has Samba4 alpha18 which is a bit buggy and missing a lot of elements.

Thanks in advance

I really want it, but I really really don't want to compile

Waiting for it to be packaged and included in Ubuntu.

Unless I have done something wrong, even when you compile the latest code the version still ends up being
root@30://usr/local/samba/sbin# samba -V
Version 4.0.0alpha18
I suspect the alpha18 is the latest.

I don't think so.

They celebrated 4.0 the other day

http://www.samba.org/samba/history/samba-4.0.0.html

"This is is the first stable release of Samba 4.0."

I assume a stable release isn't an alpha.

I to would like to have samba native included in 12.04 not the very old alpha18.

As I workaround I use

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kernevil/samba4/ubuntu precise main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/kernevil/samba4/ubuntu precise main

Works great but there is a problem with winbind/getent etc.

I´m also waiting on the official repo's to catch up. Anyone know when they will have the stable 4.0 up and ready.

I am also interested when I will be able to get Samba 4 full release in a package. Will it be made available in 12.04 LTS? or will I need to use 12.10?

Thanks for any replies

Hi UBUNTU Officials,

could you please answer our Question? LTS means for me also to update alpha or beta packages if they went RTM. Samb4 is important! I do not want to install 13.04 to get it!
