[Bug 574867] Re: package samba-common-bin 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu3 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2

[Mark Campbell]

Hi, I had the same problem as you.  What was suggested to me was to move
the files to make them unreachable, e.g., nmblookup to nmblookup.bak, so
I did that and it gave me a new error with a new file, so I moved that
one as well. I repeated this process until apt-get -f install proceeded
(I used -fy).

The three files in question were:

'testparm' 
'net' 
'nmblookup'

I moved these files to their name plus .bak and the apt-get -f install
proceeded. Find attached a log of my activity in this endeavor.
Everything is included from beginning to finish for this bug.

** Attachment added: "Moving files and then running apt-get -f install again."
