Bug 89184

Verified in testing.

Created attachment 91212 [details]
script of a successful build of samba-2.2.7a-8.9.0

This ran on rhl-9.lab.boston.redhat.com, an up2date celeron 500

Building the unmodified .spec file WORKSFORME.  (See attached script of a
successful build).  If you want us to support a custom configuration, you need
to talk to sales.

I just had the same problem for the exact same reason with 2.2.8a-2.10 from
rawhide. Assuming that "default worksforme, talk to sales" should not (yet) be
interpreted as Microsoft manners, I would suggest the following one-line fix:

BTW, pdbedit is *not* an LDAP-specific file. It belongs to samba, with or
without LDAP, but it is primarily needed when LDAP is not used. In other words:
if the default samba package does not contain it, then the default samba package
is broken. Most probably you built it using an older version of RPM which
doesn't complain about unpackaged files.

Debug is not being written, but I guess that's a different bug. 

Thanks Zenon, it's good to know I'm not crazy.
