Well, it has been about a year ago, when I installed my servers. 
And by then libgnutls-dev had been available without any problem. 
Maybe there are some remnants on the system - I frankly don't know. 
I will definitely try this on a VM, that is already installed. 
(maybe a better idea would be to copy it... it was my first 
attempt with KVM, but it seems to work OK). I will keep notes 
and report, on how I got it running (or failed to do so). 

Best regards

weather today at the rim of the Alps...

OK, I have had it politely pointed out to me that I am officially an 
idiot, I was using a script that I wrote, to install everything and I 
made a stupid error in the script and it added wheezy backports to 
jessie DOH!

I have now fixed the script and installed 4.2 by compiling it and am now 
fighting with systemd, sigh, and this is supposed to be progress.

OK, I fixed the problem with systemd, I removed systemd :-)

I can now confirm that you can build samba 4.2 on Debian Jessie and it 
will work

I installed it as a member server and properly setup it returns this:

root at jesdeb:~# getent passwd rowland
rowland:*:10000:10000:Rowland Penny:/home/rowland:/bin/bash

I installed these packages to compile Samba:

build-essential libacl1-dev libattr1-dev libblkid-dev libgnutls28-dev 
libreadline-dev python-dev libpam0g-dev python-dnspython gdb pkg-config 
libpopt-dev libldap2-dev dnsutils libbsd-dev attr krb5-user docbook-xsl 
libcups2-dev acl libkrb5-dev libssl-dev xsltproc krb5-config libpam-krb5

Now if some wise person that understands systemd and knows how to get it 
to start the 'nmbd', 'winbindd' & 'smbd' daemons,
could post an howto, I
am quite prepared to try it, but until then, a certain LP can stick 
systemd where the sun doesn't shine.
