+Step 2bis: recompile Samba4
+---------------------------

+This only applies for those who are recompiling Samba4 after updating the code
+(using "rsync" or "git").
+
+Due to some imperfections in our actual build system (hope that this changes

+
+  $ cd samba4/source
+  $ make clean
+  $ ./autogen.sh
+  $ ./configure
+  $ make idl_full
