Title:
  samba upgrade fails

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  In upgrading from 11.04 to 11.10 I got the following messages:
  2011-10-15 16:02:27,851 ERROR got an error from dpkg for pkg: '/var/cache/apt/archives/samba_2%3a3.5.11~dfsg-1ubuntu2_i386.deb': 'subprocess new post-removal script returned error exit status 2'

  On rebooting into 11.10 the upgrade of that package worked correctly
