Unfortunately this is only partial fix, it works only when user hasn't
both packages - samba and libpam-smbpass in his system. If user has
samba package already installed then nautilus-share doesn't install
libpam-smbpass package :(

It's very easy to reproduce:
1. install samba and do not install libpam-smbpass package (remove it if it's already installed)
2. Press right click on any subfolder from your home folder and choose "Sharing Option" from menu.
3. Click on "Share this folder" and then click button "Create Share"

As you see - you can share a folder even if you haven't libpam-smbpass
installed and you don't get a dialog with suggestion to install needed
libpam-smbpass package :(

Btw, AFAIK nautilus-share package should have libpam-smbpass package in
Recommends or Suggests field, like samba package.

I can report this as separate bugreport, just tell me :)

** Changed in: nautilus-share (Ubuntu)
       Status: Fix Released => In Progress
