Yes, the following in samba-common.postinst:
ucf --three-way --debconf-ok "$NEWFILE" "$CONFIG"
ucfr samba-common "$CONFIG"
chmod a+r "$CONFIG"
results in:
Not replacing deleted config file /etc/samba/smb.conf
chmod: cannot access `/etc/samba/smb.conf': No such file or directory
If the file is deleted, it should probably reinstall a pristine version, rather than just "Not replacing" it and letting chmod fail :)
It's still something that shouldn't happen (/etc conffiles should be removed by purge, not manually) but given the number of updates that fail for this reason a more graceful handling of this corner case is definitely wanted.

slangasek once said:
"the reasons for not regenerating the config file whenever it's missing or empty are rooted in the Debian and Ubuntu policy on config files, and this can't be changed without causing more problems than it solves."
so we should rather have a more informative error message. Something like:
Not replacing deleted config file /etc/samba/smb.conf
Install/upgrade will fail. To recover, please try:
sudo cp /usr/share/samba/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.conf
sudo dpkg --configure -a
