Bug Description
Binary package hint: samba
Hello,
Problem (Dependency error):
When I install SAMBA via NAUTILUS sharing option (Default File Manager of UBUNTU 10.10) it marks the package "libpam-smbpass" for installation together with SAMBA package, but when I try to install SAMBA via SYNAPTIC, it don't mark this package...
CONSEQUENCE:
What I've noticed is that without the package "libpam-smbpass", my computer is now shown to the other computers in my SAMBA workgroup... With it my PC is shown in the workgroup...
Solution:
Add the package "libpam-smbpass" to SAMBA dependencies in a way that the user have to install it if he/she wants to install SAMBA via SYNAPTIC or other package manager...
WORKAROUND:
Install the package "libpam-smbpass" separately from SAMBA package using any package manager...
Thanks for your attention,
André M.

libpam-smbpass doesn't have anything to do with whether or not your computer will show up in the local network, I think that is a red herring.
