Public bug reported:

Scheduled-For: ubuntu-25.11
Ubuntu: 2:4.22.3+dfsg-4ubuntu2
Debian Unstable: 2:4.23.1+dfsg-1

A new release of samba is available for merging from Debian Unstable.

If it turns out this needs a sync rather than a merge, please change the
tagging from ['needs-merge', 'upgrade-software-version'] to ['needs-
sync', 'upgrade-software-version'], and (optionally) update the title as
desired.

If this merge pulls in a new upstream version, also consider adding an
entry to the r-series Release Notes:

samba (2:4.22.3+dfsg-4ubuntu1) questing; urgency=medium

  * Merge with Debian unstable (LP: #2117421, LP: #2116098). Remaining changes:
    - debian/control: Ubuntu i386 binary compatibility:
      + enable the liburing vfs module, except on i386 where liburing is
        not available
      + python3-samba depends on python3-cryptography, which Ubuntu doesn't
        build on i386 (LP #2099895):
        - d/control: don't recommend python3-samba on i386
        - d/rules: don't build python3-samba on ubuntu i386
    - d/t/control, d/t/util,d/t/samba-ad-dc-provisioning-internal-dns:
      samba AD DC provisioning and domain join tests with internal DNS
      (LP #1977746, LP #2011745)
    - d/control: adjust breaks/replaces for file move that Debian did in
      4.16.6+dfsg-5, and Ubuntu only did in 4.17.7+dfsg-1ubuntu1, to avoid
      file conflict in a dist-upgrade from earlier Ubuntu releases, like
      Kinetic (LP #2024663)
    - d/control: make samba-vfs-modules-extra a transitional package.
      The glusterfs vfs module (the only vfs module shipped in it
      previously) is now in bin:samba-vfs-glusterfs
    - d/control: have the (now transitional) samba-vfs-modules package
      depend on samba-vfs-ceph, so that upgrades retain the ceph vfs
      module
    - d/control: samba-vfs-modules and samba-vfs-modules-extra, now
      transitional packages, should only depend on the new samba-vfs-ceph and
      samba-vfs-glusterfs packages on the architectures where those two
      packages are built (LP #2076682)
    - d/control: samba-vfs-modules i386 adjustments:
      + samba-vfs-modules-extra was not built before for 32bit architectures,
        adjust Architectures line
      + samba-vfs-modules: this one was build for 32bit architectures before,
        so we need the conditional Depends for ceph
    - d/p/fix-motd-gpo-list-empty.patch: fix crash when listing an empty MOTD
      GPO
    - d/t/samba-ad-dc-provisioning-internal-dns: add MOTD GPO test
    - d/control: don't have bin:samba recommend bin:samba-ad-dc (LP #2101838)
  * Dropped:
    - d/control: Fix t64 package name in 'Enhances' attribute.
      [In 2:4.22.3+dfsg-3]
    - d/p/fix-update-motd-gpo.patch: multiple fixes for MOTD GPO:
      + fix crash when updating an already existing MOTD GPO (LP #2092308)
      + fix another crash when the GPO doesn't exist yet (LP #2098755)
      + replace instead of append MOTD GPO text
      [Fixed upstream in 4.22.1, should have been dropped in previous merge]
