[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#249873: Patch

Hi,

I'd like to help fix this, but I'm not quite sure what kind of patch
you'd like to see here.

If think the proper solution is to drop the fhs-filespaths.patch and
make "private dir" default to upstreams layout, both in the installed
smb.conf and in the binary.

For migration, there would be a postinst script that checks if we are
updating from a previous package version and in that case either

- move the private dir from /var/lib/samba to the new default, or

- adjust smb.conf such that "private dir" points to /var/lib/samba


Which one would you prefer? Or were you thinking about something else
entirely?


Best,

   -Nikolaus
