Description Simo Sorce 2009-07-06 14:06:44 UTC
When we build libtalloc and other libs at the same time, the samba4 build scripts fail to build the libraris in samba4-libs with libtalloc dynamically linked. Instead they embed a copy of talloc statically linked in.
This can cause serious issues if libtalloc is later updated to a new version because users like openchange libraries will import both the static version through these libraries and the dynamic version through libldb or libtevent.

The fix is to split the build and make samba4 depend on libtalloc-devel so that the dependency is properly detected. The split already happend in rawhide and the package built fine there.

Comment 1 Matthew Barnes 2009-07-06 14:49:45 UTC
You're already all over this, so reassigning to you.

Comment 2 Simo Sorce 2009-07-07 00:38:57 UTC
FYI I am not pushing new packages because I found out the build problem extends to all 4 libraries (talloc, tdb, tevent, ldb) in current F-11 packages.
Splitting out tdb and talloc solves the problem with these two libs, but doesn't fix tevent and ldb problems.

Comment 3 Simo Sorce 2009-07-07 21:37:22 UTC
apparently removing the static linking ot tevent and ldb from alpha7 is not possible, in that version internal dependencies require to compile ldb statically in and the build system seem to drag in tevent statically too.

Well have to do with fixing just the talloc and tdb inclusion for now.
The next upstream release should help fixing this problem.
