Thanks for your report.

The relevant error is

Setting up samba-common (2:3.4.0-3ubuntu5.3) ...
Not replacing deleted config file /etc/samba/smb.conf
Install/upgrade will fail. To recover, please try:
  sudo cp /usr/share/samba/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.conf
  sudo dpkg --configure -a
dpkg: error processing samba-common (--configure):

Could you please try the suggested workaround to recover this situation.
Set the status of this report to invalid if it fix your issue. Thanks.
