Package: libsmbclient Version: 2:3.6.6-6+deb7u9 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
After moving to the current Wheezy Oldstable version of libsmbclient, 2:3.6.6-6+deb7u9, the use of the Perl module Filesys::SmbClient fails to read/write to samba shares citing permissions errors. Rolling back to the previously installed version, 2:3.6.6-6+deb7u7, allows the perl module's read/write interactions to succeed. To verify: I used two systems running the same version of the Perl module, libfilesys-smbclient-perl, version 3.1-3+b3, and its dependencies. On one, I downgraded to libsmbclient version 2:3.6.6-6+deb7u7, and the other remained at 2:3.6.6-6+deb7u9 (Oldstable). The machine with 7u7 installed worked, while the machine with 7u9 did not. The libsmbclient package is the only package which differed between the machine's perl module dependencies. Thanks. -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.9 APT prefers oldstable APT policy: (500, 'oldstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-0.bpo.4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libsmbclient depends on: ii dpkg 1.16.17 ii libc6 2.13-38+deb7u10 ii libcap2 1:2.22-1.2 ii libcomerr2 1.42.5-1.1+deb7u1 ii libgssapi-krb5-2 1.10.1+dfsg-5+deb7u7 ii libk5crypto3 1.10.1+dfsg-5+deb7u7 ii libkrb5-3 1.10.1+dfsg-5+deb7u7 ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.31+really2.4.40+dfsg-1+deb8u1~bpo70+1 ii libtalloc2 2.0.7+git20120207-1 ii libtdb1 1.2.10-2 ii libwbclient0 2:3.6.6-6+deb7u6 ii multiarch-support 2.13-38+deb7u10 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.7.dfsg-13 libsmbclient recommends no packages. libsmbclient suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
