(Get the code!)
Confirmed the above, and fix. I just hit this bug in the process of upgrading a (relatively newly installed ~3 weeks) 5.10 ubuntu install to 6.06 RC using the recommended upgrade process (gksudo "update-manager -d"). It seems the dangling sym link mentioned above was the problem:
matthew@sprite:~$ sudo apt-get install

Setting up samba (3.0.22-1ubuntu3) ...
* Starting Samba daemons...
...the error initially caused the dapper upgrade process to (seemingly) abort with two dialogue boxes:
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 102
installArchives() failed
...however it did then prompt me to reboot.
I had installed samba (through the 'connect to server' wizard) but hadn't done anything more with it than that since installing 5.10. I found myself reverting back to 'reboot and hope for the best' for the first time since using ubuntu :( This was the only error for me in an otherwise smooth upgrade process - hope that helps.
