Bug Description

The latest version of sssd in Ubuntu (2.5.2-4ubuntu1) drops the libwbclient-sssd binary package due to upstream's decision:

https://github.com/SSSD/sssd/releases/tag/2.5.0

  "* SSSD's implementation of libwbclient was removed as incompatible with modern version of Samba."

This makes freeipa-client-samba uninstallable, because it depends on that package.

I think the best approach here is to make freeipa-client-samba depend on libwbclient-dev instead, which is samba's libwbclient version.

I proposed a Merge Request against freeipa on Debian here:

https://salsa.debian.org/freeipa-team/freeipa/-/merge_requests/1

I will propose adding the same change as an Ubuntu delta for now in order to unblock sssd in update-excuses.

freeipa (4.8.6-1ubuntu9) jammy; urgency=medium

  * d/control: Drop freeipa-client-samba's dependency on
    libwbclient-sssd, which doesn't exist anymore. Replace it with a
    dependency on libwbclient-dev (from the samba package). (LP: #1951015)
  * d/control.common: Likewise.
