Description Alan Hodgson 2016-04-05 17:28:29 UTC

sys-libs/ldb updated for me yesterday and afterwards samba 4.2.9 wouldn't restart. Errors like:

pr  5 09:56:48 achilles samba[7743]: Copyright Andrew Tridgell and the Samba Team 1992-2014
Apr  5 09:56:48 achilles samba[7743]: ldb: module version mismatch in ../source4/dsdb/samdb/ldb_modules/acl.c : ldb_version=1.1.26 module_version=1.1.24
Apr  5 09:56:48 achilles samba[7743]: ldb: failed to initialise module /usr/lib64/samba/ldb/acl.so : Unavailable
Apr  5 09:56:48 achilles samba[7743]: ldb: Unable to find backend for '/var/lib/samba/private/privilege.ldb' - do you need to set LDB_MODULES_PATH?

.. etc.

Rebuilding samba fixed it.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. update ldb
2. restart samba
3. samba fails
Actual Results:  
Samba no longer working after restart.

Expected Results:  
Samba works normally.

Alternatively, sys-libs/ldb needs to use symbol versioning to retian the proper api calls for older versions.

Is this still an issue? Samba seems to lock down the ldb version pretty specifically, does this actually break between (eg) ldb-2.5.2 & ldb-2.5.3?
