Description of problem: samba-libs uses '-lsystemd-daemon' but should switch to '-lsystemd'. This causes it to require systemd-compat-libs, containing systemd libraries with historical names. For longer explanation see http://www.spinics.net/lists/fedora-devel/msg200853.html. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): samba-libs-2:4.1.9-3.fc21.x86_64
We are tracking the same issue upstream with https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10672
This message is a reminder that Fedora 21 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 21. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '21'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 21 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 24 development cycle. Changing version to '24'. More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Program_Management/HouseKeeping/Fedora24#Rawhide_Rebase

We have a policy at Red Hat/Fedora: Upstream first! So please create an upstream bug or submit the patch to samba-technical!
(In reply to Andreas Schneider from comment #5) > > So please create an upstream bug or submit the patch to samba-technical! Comment 1 suggests it's actually been in upstream since 2014, as https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10672 which was closed as dupe of https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11200.
This bug should be closed as it was reported in Fedora 21 and is not relevant for Fedora 24.
FWIW, I confirm that samba-client-libs-4.4.3-1.fc25.2.x86_64 from http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=767901 no longer fails with Error: Package: 2:samba-client-libs-4.4.3-1.fc25.1.x86_64 (rawhide) Requires: libsystemd-daemon.so.0(LIBSYSTEMD_DAEMON_31)(64bit) Error: Package: 2:samba-client-libs-4.4.3-1.fc25.1.x86_64 (rawhide) Requires: libsystemd-daemon.so.0()(64bit)
Actually, it became very relevant in rawhide where systemd-compat-libs seems to no longer exist.
Here is the problem: we have an alternative patch proposed upstream since February 2016 that simply makes up old defines in case only libsystemd is found and makes it a preferable one. https://github.com/samba-team/samba/pull/53/commits/3ce7adb6945c9913f8aa48043f2e23ac5e04bba6 But we don't have a patch from Zbigniew proposed upstream. This is what Andreas was talking about. I'd rather to see the patch from Zbigniew sent upstream because it allows us to support both old and new version with less code changes.
My knowledge about samba and about waf is nonexistent. I pushed a quick-fix patch that makes a minimum change to allow samba to compile, but I'd prefer if one of the maintainers of the package decided if this is the right fix and maybe pushed it upstream.
Your patch looks correct and as Alexander already said he likes your approach. However you should first send the patch for discussion upstream and make sure it gets fixed. We do not want to carry a fix which upstream is not accepted. As this is already in the Fedora package now, please go ahead and send it upstream from inclusion. git format-patch is preferred with your Signed-Off :)

Fedora 24 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-08-08. Fedora 24 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
