I got this problem after removing samba. I think it may be a problem that libpam-smbpass depends on samba without that being defined. You can remove samba, leave samba-common and libpam-smbpass and you will have this problem. Stupid thing is that every sudo fails also, so removing the libpam-smbpass will require me to enter single user mode and work from there (telinit 1). With sudo failing, there is no way to fix this without that.

The following dmesg entries are shown (and repeated for every type of sudo command):
[ 4940.176470] sudo[9337]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f5c6e480d6c sp 00007fff783b9fe0 error 4 in pam_smbpass.so[7f5c6e419000+149000]

I have this problem on Ubuntu Intrepid on x86_64 with the latest updates.
