It shows how horribly outdated the samba packages for the LTS versions jammy and noble are. Jammy has 4.15 and noble 4.19. I found no ppa for samba either. Except the linux-schools project which does not seem to work correctly... MJTs repository seems to be 100% necessary. You can always get yourself a contract with the lovely people of SerNet, they'll provide ubuntu packages for a reasonable fee. Have a nice day, Matthias. -- Senior Webentwickler Datenschutzbeauftragter Ellerhold Aktiengesellschaft Friedrich-List-Str. 4 01445 Radebeul Telefon: +49 (0) 351 83933-61 Web: www.ellerhold.de Facebook: www.facebook.com/ellerhold.gruppe Instagram: www.instagram.com/ellerhold.gruppe LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/ellerhold-gruppe Amtsgericht Dresden / HRB 23769 Vorstand: Stephan Ellerhold, Maximilian Ellerhold Vorsitzender des Aufsichtsrates: Frank Ellerhold --- Diese E-Mail und Ihre Anlagen enthalten vertrauliche Mitteilungen.
