Looks like Samba has a hidden dep on e2fsprogs - i.e. the configure process picks it up if present at build time, but it's not recorded in WANTLIB/LIB_DEPENDS. At least the amd64 release packages for 5.4 picked it up. In this situation we can either add it as a proper dependency or modify the port to not pick it up (either patch, or set autoconf flags, etc). It looks like it's required for samba's dns update support, so in this case it would make more sense to add the dep. > > It was not easy to find where libuuid was located. Ah, I see you haven't been introduced to the "pkglocatedb" package yet :)
