           Summary: Samba-4.8.5 destroys time machine partitions
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New

I just lost 1 years worth of Time Machine backups after upgrading Samba from
4.8.4_1 to 4.8.5. The macOS "sparse bundle" was damaged and could no longer be
accessed.

On each attempt to create a fresh sparse bundle to start over with the backups,
the backup process was aborted after writing some 10 GB (of 200 GB), leaving a
corrupt sparse bundle behind.

After going back to 4.8.4_1 the backups have been working again for several
days now.
