[Bug 887953] Re: package samba-common 2:3.5.8~dfsg-1ubuntu2.3 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 126

[James Page]

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug in Ubuntu.

I think this is a general issue with your installation.

Please can you check the permissions on /bin/sed:

    sudo ls -l /bin/sed

and provide the output in this bug report.

For some reason the permissions or this program looks like its broken.

Marking 'Incomplete' pending your response. Please set back to 'New'
once you have provided the requested information

Thanks
