Hello,
As with the Red Hat source code issue, I have the same problem.
viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1529

Is it possible to systematically distribute the source code for new SAMBA-AD distributions in your repository?

In my case, I would need it for Debian Buster

http://samba.tranquil.it/debian/

It appears this has already been done in previous versions.

Thank you very much
for your help

Unfortunately, we cannot make a commitment without mutual consideration.

If it's something that doesn't cost us time, we can promise to try to improve.

If it costs us time and there is no revenue to offset it, then no promise will even be mentioned.

Yes, yes, I understand.
In my department, I'm refused permission to use your repositories because they don't know if your recent compiled version of Samba is close to the original Debian repository packages, or if your version adds a lot of extra libraries that aren't necessarily needed to meet most requirements.

Well, it's a philosophical question.
For my part, I've never doubted the quality of your services; in fact, I'm quite convinced of the professionalism of your teams.

Thank you.
