Bug Description
Binary package hint: samba
I did a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04.1 today on my girlfriend's computer and after installing everything she needed I tried to share a folder in the network. When it asked to install samba, a error ocurred mentioning a broken package.
Trying to install the samba package via synaptic I saw what appears to be the error.
The samba package I was trying to install was version 2:3.4.7~
It has as dependency samba-common and samba-common-bin =2:3.4.
But I have samba-common and samba-common-bin already installed in version 2:3.4.7~
I if choose to downgrade samba-common and samba-common-bin to version 2:3.4.7~
So I cannot install samba only because the version of the samba package is off by 1 digit. Updating the samba package or it's dependenies should solve it.
Please don't let me down. Everybody at her house was impressed with Ubuntu, until this bug showed up...
You should be installing samba version 2:3.4.7~ dfsg-1ubuntu3. 1. All components of the samba package should be at that level.
Please try:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
$ sudo apt-get install samba
