Comment 1 for bug 48705

I've had the same problem while upgrading from 5.10 to 6.06 while using apt-get dist-upgrade. Fortunately, all other packets were upgraded correctly.

After the problem, I was unable even to remove or upgrade samba (or any other package), because apt-get/dpkg would always abort with the above error in the middle of the operation.

I had to manually 'sudo rm' both /etc/rc3.d/K09samba and /etc/rc2.d/K09samba (both pointed to '/samba') in order to be able to do a successful 'apt-get remove samba' followed by an 'apt-get install samba' again.
