Package: samba Version: 2:4.3.3+dfsg-2+b1 Severity: important Today, when upgrading from 2:4.1.17+dfsg-4 to 2:4.3.3+dfsg-2+b1, I found that samba, winbind and libpam-winbind were not configured. It looked like a circular dependency, so I tried to force configuration:
|tucano:~# dpkg --force-depends --configure --pending |Setting up samba (2:4.3.3+dfsg-2+b1) ... |Job for smbd.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
