- samba4,
depends on BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_NATIVE_RPC only
Given the size of the package, I doubt having it depends on glibc would
be too bad.
And when glibc actually drops their internal rpc, then samba will have
to add suopport for an alternative implementation.
I had a quick look at bLFS again, and they recommend building against
libtirpc:
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/basicnet/samba.html
So we may in the end be also able to switch entirely to using libtirpc.

Yann E. MORIN.
