[Bug 877852] [NEW] samba failed to install when updating from ubuntu 11.04 to 11.10

[Thiago Benvenuto]

Public bug reported:

Just used the update manager to update Ubuntu from 11.04 to 11.10 and
during process it gives two messages saying "install will continue but
samba package may not be working when it finishes" and after the update
finished it gives this final error, saying samba is not working.
