Public bug reported: This error is odd.
I'm on Xubuntu 20.04.6, and I've reverted all app sources back to plain vanialla distro (universe, multiverse, restricted) I've reinstalled Samba (for another reason) - and ended up in having no Samba at all. Apt keeps failing with the following error message: ``` Checking smb.conf with testparm testparm: **symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/samba/libldbsamba.so.0: undefined symbol: ldb_msg_element_is_inaccessible, version LDB_2.4.4** dpkg: error processing package samba-common-bin (--configure): installed samba-common-bin package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 127 dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of samba: samba depends on samba-common-bin (= 2:4.15.13+dfsg-0ubuntu0.20.04.8); however: Package samba-common-bin is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing package samba (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured No apport report written because the error message indicates it's a follow-up error from a previous failure. Processing triggers for ufw (0.36-6ubuntu1.1) ... ``` The following line therein is the one I don't understand: > "symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux- gnu/samba/libldbsamba.so.0: undefined symbol: ldb_msg_element_is_inaccessible, version LDB_2.4.4" It sounds like the libldb and samba versions/APIs? are not matching? How could that be? I've ran "debsums" on my system, and it says some missing files, but no borken libraries. Any clues and help greatly appreciated! A life without samba is not really fun :( Thanks. ^Rooker ** Affects: samba (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: xubuntu-default-settings (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Invalid ** Also affects: samba (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2091825 Title: unable to install samba: libldbsamba.so.0: undefined symbol To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/2091825/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
