[Samba] Building on debian 8.6

Thank you Rowland!

Running 'apt-get install <all_those_packages>' resulted in:
[...]
The following extra packages will be installed:
  comerr-dev krb5-multidev libssl-doc
Suggested packages:
  doc-base krb5-doc
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  comerr-dev krb5-multidev libkrb5-dev libpam-krb5 libssl-dev libssl-doc
0 upgraded, 6 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 2,739 kB of archives.
After this operation, 8,103 kB of additional disk space will be used.

This made me quite hopeful that I'd be able to compile samba, but
sadly no luck - exactly the same again. (Sorry for the delayed
response - I left it compiling but the network connection dropped
overnight, so I re-started the build this morning!)

OK, as I said there was a problem with the smb.conf manpage, try this:

in the Samba tarball you downloaded, find this file:
samba-4.5.2/docs-xml/wscript_build

open it in your favourite editor and find this line:

' if ('XSLTPROC_MANPAGES' in bld.env and
bld.env['XSLTPROC_MANPAGES']):'

under it is this line:

    SMBDOTCONF_MANPAGE(bld, 'manpages/smb.conf.5')

comment it out and try the compile again.

I would also suggest you download 4.5.3 and use that instead of 4.5.2

Thanks Rowland - that did the trick, and the build has now completed
successfully (without smb.conf, of course).

It's weird, because I've compiled Samba on Raspbian for a few years
now without any issues; this is my first try with Debian itself, I
wondered if I was missing something, as I understood Raspbian was
based on Debian.. I guess there are more differences than I had
thought. (Before switching to Raspbian for my DCs I had only used
CentOS, and Slackware before that - never had problems compiling Samba
there)

And yes, you are quite right - 4.5.3 appeared after I had started
trying to build this :) I figured I should get it building first, then
re-do the necessary steps but with 4.5.3 instead - which I will do
now.

Many thanks,

Jonathan
