Comment 25 for bug 37027

I have this problem to install samba in debian:
Eu tive esse problema ao instalar o samba no Debian:

# apt-get install samba samba-doc samba-common smbclient

"...
Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)"

I kill the problem like this, I believe that It will work on Ubuntu too:
Eu resolví o problema assim, eu acredito que vai funcionar no ubuntu também:

# apt-get remove samba samba-doc samba-common smbclient --purge

# apt-get autoclean

# apt-get autoremove

After this, it works:
depois disso, funcionou:

# apt-get install samba samba-doc samba-common smbclient

Sorry the bad english :D

Try this.
Tenten isso.
