Description Jocelyn Mayer 2022-10-17 11:35:09 UTC 
On a system built without NIS support, with no net-libs/libnsl & net-libs/rpcsvc-proto merged, samba is currently unable to build.
The proposal is then to add a nis USE option to samba.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Build without NIS support, masking net-libs/libnsl and net-libs/rpcsvc-proto
2. Try to build net-fs/samba
3. Build fails
Actual Results:  
samba is not able to build without USE nis set

Expected Results:  
samba should be able to build without need of NIS

Updated patch for version 4.15.9

Since net-libs/libtirpc dependency has been added to this ebuild (long ago but after I first did patch the samba ebuild...), the configure system will use its headers from /usr/include/tirpc/rpcsvc to build when /usr/include/rpcsvc is not available without the need of a new option.
Thus, the patch can be greatly simplified as the only need is to have rpcgen tool available, either by net-libs/rpcsvc-proto, old glibc or net-fs/nfs-utils.
