Thanks for filing this bug in Ubuntu.

This can be reproduced by stopping the samba services and calling logrotate:

# systemctl stop smbd nmbd

# logrotate -f /etc/logrotate.d/samba
Can't find pid for destination 'nmbd'
error: error running non-shared postrotate script for /var/log/samba/log.nmbd of '/var/log/samba/log.nmbd '

# echo $?
1
