Redhat/CentOS 7 support (compile from source) about ansible-samba HOT 6 CLOSED

I have done similar work to build samba from source in debian/ubuntu distros. (it is not well documented yet)

https://github.com/uspdev/ansible-role-install-samba

I can bring this code to this role too.

@thiagogomesverissimo thanks for sharing your code. Things that came into my mind while skimming through your code:

• It's specific to Debian and doesn't support Redhat based systems (yet)
• On Debian, it lists all build-dependencies manually instead of using the build-depends option to the Ansible apt module

Apart from that, it's pretty similar, only that it's not integrated into the role logic yet. I don't have strong feelings on which code to use, but adding support for compiling from source to this role would be very nice in any case :)

I would be very interested in seeing what you guys can come up with in regards to this. We would need to have some good testing results to validate with and etc. as well. But I think this would be very very useful to this role.

I prepared a merge request: #16

Let me know what you think about it. Would be awesome to get this merged :)

I need to look into this once I get some free cycles.
