Public bug reported: Installing freeipa-server-trust-ad (and running ipa-adtrust-install) will degrade the ipa server and brake the enter system, including dns server (bind9). The reason is that ipactl tries to start samba by explicitly calling systemctl start 'smb.service'. Calling systemctl start 'smb.service' however results in:

I updated to 16.04 to see if it was fixed already.
