I'm not in the Ubuntu hype but I'd advise folks to seriously think
twice before doing this. I very much suspect that the latest package
with the 'regression' includes the security fix from samba 3.2.7,
backported.
So, this is a balance between security and fixing an important bug (at
least in some situations).
So, indeed, while I understand that one want to go back to the
unofficial version with the fix for LP#364943, I would strongly advise
against locking to this verson.
