Description Ingo Schaefer 2007-10-04 13:28:17 UTC

Description of problem:
I installed some kind of minimal system (server class) and this machine should
only provide file services, so I decided not to install printing support and
"unchecked" it in the installation. Everything went fine, but samda did not
start, even if printing was explicite not configured.

After installing cups-libs, samba started perfectly.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
just tried once

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install fedora 7 without "printing support", but including "samba"
2. try to start samba service
  
Actual results:
the smbd did not start properly

Expected results:
either installation should have installed cups-libs or the samba smbd binary
should load the lib dynamically if needed via some kind of module system.

Additional info:

Comment 1 Simo Sorce 2007-10-04 15:35:58 UTC

The samba packages requires libcups.so.2 which is provided by cups-libs.
Have you installed all dependencies? or have you forced the installation of the
samba package with --nodeps ?

Comment 2 Ingo Schaefer 2007-10-04 15:48:27 UTC

I just made a "normal" installation without any possibility to force
installation of packages.

I don't know if this is a bug in "Requires" or in anaconda which in fact
installed the package.

Comment 3 Simo Sorce 2007-10-04 16:01:02 UTC

an 'rpm -q --requires samba' should return you libcups.so.2 in the output, can
you confirm ?

Comment 4 Ingo Schaefer 2007-10-04 16:33:07 UTC

Yes, the package seems to have libcups.so.2 listed in requires.

But installation dates on the machine are:
samba: september 26th, 10:38
cups-libs: september 27th, 14:48

(I installed cups-libs after samba failed to start.)

I just found out, that the original installation installed cups-libs-1.2.10 and
now 1.2.12 is installed. Maybe the original cups-libs package was broken?

Comment 5 Simo Sorce 2007-10-04 20:03:03 UTC

Could be, what samba version do you have?

Comment 6 Ingo Schaefer 2007-10-05 07:42:36 UTC

As I stated already: 

now (working) is 1.2.12

previous (not working) was 1.2.10 (original installation version)

Comment 7 Simo Sorce 2007-10-05 13:11:30 UTC

But I asked you about the samba version, not the cups version :-)

Comment 8 Ingo Schaefer 2007-10-05 15:00:40 UTC

Oh sorry.

currently installed is 3.0.26a, previously installed was 3.0.25-2

So I think that one of the installation packages had bad dependencies which are
already fixed.

Comment 9 Simo Sorce 2007-10-05 16:36:23 UTC

Ok then I'll close this as fixed in current release,
thanks.
