[Bug 789097] Re: [Samba] idmap backend = tdb2 is broken in Ubuntu / Debian

A new package fixing this was uploaded in Debian unstable on Sunday
June 5th. Package version is 2:3.5.8~dfsg-5.

For Ubuntu, a resync with Debian unstable should fix the problem in
the currently developed version "whatever funky name it might have" (I
can't cope with Ubuntu release names!). A fix is probably needed for
Ubuntu 11.04. I think that the diff between Debian 2:3.5.8~dfsg-4 and
-5 should be OK. I'm not sure whether the problem is also in the
current Ubuntu LTS.

I'm awaiting for the Debian release managers approval for a fix to be
uploaded for Debian stable.

Title:
  tdb2.so undefined symbol: dyn_get_STATEDIR (source code typo)

Status in “samba” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: samba

  This error occurs if "idmap backend = tdb2" is specified in smb.conf

  The source of the error is this patchfile
  fhs-filespath.patch

  The offending patch is at the bottom of the file, as follows

  ===================================================================
  --- a/source3/winbindd/idmap_tdb2.c
  +++ b/source3/winbindd/idmap_tdb2.c

   	if (db_path == NULL) {
   		/* fall back to the private directory, which, despite
   		   its name, is usually on shared storage */
  -		db_path = talloc_asprintf(NULL, "%s/idmap2.tdb", lp_private_dir());
  +		db_path = talloc_asprintf(NULL, "%s/idmap2.tdb", dyn_get_STATEDIR());
   	}
   	NT_STATUS_HAVE_NO_MEMORY(db_path);

  The correct function name is get_dyn_STATEDIR, not dyn_get_STATEDIR.

  I've tested it can be fixed by changing this accordingly.
