There was also the matter of the pre 11 series behavior of AppArmor in blocking Samba; this I found was more pronounced in the DVD install. (To this day I can't get Samba to work properly in a DVD install.) Since I am not a developer, and have only a brief familiarity with many of the logistical issues facing a project of this magnitude I will not offer an immediate critique. However as an Ambassador I must emphasize that these sort of anomalies, no matter how technically minor will shake the confidence of someone trying the new release. The things that we may consider minor, a new user will consider to be clues to the overall experience and what to expect; this is especially true for new users coming from Windows. Thus we lose a potential asset to the community in favor of some other distro (usually Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora, or Mandriva). Frankly, I would rather we be a bit late on releasing 12.1 than to release it as finished with the same sort of issues 11.4 showed.
You misseed to quote the bug ID. "Lars, I've not filed one!" Then there is no issue. :) To quote one of my beloved Samba developer colleagues: "My life is driven by bugzilla!". Why I'm not able to find it in the quips list at https://bugzilla.samba.org/ is a different question. Please follow the instructuions we provide at http://en.openSUSE.org/Samba in the section titled "Samba bug reporting and advanced debugging information". Thanks.
