Title:
  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')

Status in samba package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I am upgrading ubuntu. I Haven't used samba in quite a while and am
  not certain that it ever ran on this computer. I have a mixed Gnome/K
  install (started with kubuntu a long time ago) and have a lot of
  issues every time I do an automatic upgrade. I am inclined to believe
  it is my lack of competence rather than a bug...
