Samba4 pkg may not be in working state - during updater

[Alden Bushman]

I performed an update from Ubuntu 10.10 to 11.4. Near the very end of the update, the message "Samba4 - package may not be in a working state. I sent the report, but during Launchpad account creation, the report was lost. I have used the command ubuntu-bug samba4 to regenerate and send the report. This solution was suggested by: Curtis Hovey proposed the following answer:

According to Ubuntu's pages at <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs>, typing

I have completely removed Samba4 using the Synaptic Package Manager. I then successfully reinstalled Samba4. Now I can connect to Windows machines in my network. gEDA and gResistor seemed to need Samba4, and would not install. They now install. The problem seems to be solved.

Even though it seems to be solved, going to mark as duplicate of 774263.

Thank you for the report. :)
