[Bug 896551] Re: package samba 2:3.5.8~dfsg-1ubuntu2.3 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: package samba is not ready for configuration cannot configure (current status `half-installed')

[Daniel Harvey]

Running "apt-get install -f" manually after the upgrade exited and I
restarted seemed to correct the installation.
