Hi.
They've been merged to master which will be the 4.2 series, but not
backported to the 4.1 series, except for...
samba4-0001-build-don-t-execute-tests-summary.c.patch
samba4-0002-Minor-typo-fix-in-source3-wscript.patch
...which were included in the 4.1.8 release because they were considered
simple enough to do so.

The python package purges all *.py files, even the ones it doesn't own,
and samba4 installs only .py and .so files (for python-related
functionality) hence having this problem - this also happens when
building samba natively, it's not an artifact of cross-compilation.
This mostly affects the advanced tools like pidl, samba_dnsupdate,
samba_kcc, samba_spnupdate, samba_upgradedns and samba-tool which are
useful for domain masters and simple provisioning/upgrades.
For many scenarios this isn't an issue since they're mostly interactive
tools, but it's worth mentioning i think.
It might also be problematic for people relying on samba's python
bindings for their own tools.

Regards.
