samba - Jul 2015 - building samba git master: error with pyldb-util/ldb

Hi all,

I'm trying to build samba git master on Debian jessie with backported
ldb/talloc/tdb/tevent but am getting this error even though the
required libraries are installed. Does anyone have any suggestions
about how to debug this? I tried increasing the waf verbosity, no luck.

ERROR: Use of system library pyldb-util depends on missing system
library/libraries ['ldb']

I'm also getting this warning despite docbook-xsl being installed.

A local copy of the docbook.xsl wasn't found on your system consider
installing package like docbook-xsl

Why ? is there some specific reason to not use the libraries that 
building samba will produce ?

This could mean anything, your installed library may not be where the 
samba build expects to find it or it might not be the right version etc.

Just what did you install prior to attempting to build samba ? Did you 
follow the list on the samba wiki page ?

I generally like to install things that are released separately in
separate packages. I assumed ldb was developed separately too but it
sounds like it is an internal samba-specific library?

I'm using the latest ldb release (1.1.20) and it is installed in
standard directories for libraries on Debian so I doubt the version
number is wrong. Certainly pkg-config can find it.

I installed all the build-dependencies for the Debian samba source

referring to but I didn't look at anything on the samba wiki.
