Hello BLFS editors.

Samba 4.8.0 requires libtirpc.  Without it, the configuration stage
fails with the following:

[...]
Checking for libtirpc headers                                : not found

ERROR: No rpc/rpc.h header found, tirpc or libntirpc missing?

This is related to the same issue involving rpcsvc-proto.  One of the
dependencies of Samba is libnsl, which itself requires rpcsvc-proto and
libtirpc.  libnsl pulls in libtirpc. However, the former is not a
required dependency, while the latter is.

Hmm, the question is whether all those libraries are required, or only
recommended. That is, is there an option to disable them somehow, or should
they be present unconditionally for the configuration to succeed?

I'll try digging inside the waf build system...

From what I can see, there is no option to disable libtirpc from Samba.
Those libraries must be on the system, otherwise there's an error at
configuration stage.
