[Bug 259609] Re: package samba 2:3.2.1-1ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[OnoSendai]

no, i don't think i did.  i remember being surprised that when marking samba
for complete removal, that samba-common stayed.  if i tried to mark
samba-common for removal, it wanted to remove ubuntu-desktop as well...
which i definitely didn't want to do.

this bug tracking system is sweet.  thanks for the follow up.
