You need to install 'samba', wich will pull in 'samba-common' as a
dependency anyway.

By the way it's all there in the description:

The Samba software suite is a collection of programs that
implements the SMB/CIFS protocol for unix systems, allowing you to serve
files and printers to Windows, NT, OS/2 and DOS clients. This protocol
is sometimes also referred to as the LanManager or NetBIOS protocol.

This package contains all the components necessary to turn your
Debian GNU/Linux box into a powerful file and printer server.

Felix
