[Bug 855994] Re: Sharing service installation failed

[TonyR]

I too am affected by this error: "Failed to fetch
http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/c/cifs-utils/cifs-
utils_4.5-2ubuntu0.11.04.1_i386.deb  404  Not Found"

So many versions of ubuntu are released with folder sharing problematic
and SAMBA must be the most useless technology ever invented.  Whay can
this basic functionality not be stablised for good?

Title:
  Sharing service installation failed

Status in “samba” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've tried to share a folder from this Oneiric machine, but the normal
  process (check the "share this folder" -> install Samba server, etc.)
  is not working.

  The error "Sharing service installation failed" pops up with this
  explanation "Sharing service installation has failed. Would you like
  to retry the installation?" (Retry/Cancel buttons are there).

  Retry is not working either.

  This worked flawless in Natty.
