Description Tim Waugh 2007-08-13 15:06:42 UTC 
While investigating ways to make the system-config-printer Windows printer share
browser work properly I came across 'samba-python'.  It looks quite useful!

Is there any reason we don't ship the python module included with samba?

Yes, we do not have an official maintainer upstream for these bindings, which
tend to bit rot from time to time.
If we can find someone willing to regularly test them (even just if embedded in
fedora packages) I can start including them.
Are you volunteering? :-)
Comment 2 Tim Waugh 2008-01-11 13:04:20 UTC 
Hmm, actually I can't see how to use that to do what I need (basically a GTK+
equivalent of smbtree).
