[Bug 514963] Re: package samba-common-bin 2:3.4.0-3ubuntu5.4 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2

[Rick Horowitz]

I'm not sure, but I don't think so. I just checked the installed version in
Synaptic and it shows the latest version as 2:3.4.0-3ubuntu5.4. The reason
I'm not sure about whether there's still a problem is that I am not
currently using Samba and don't know how to test whether it is actually
installed correctly. If you can give me some simple instructions, I'll be
happy to check.

Thanks,

Rick
