[Bug 1557318] Re: package python-samba 2:4.1.17+dfsg-4ubuntu3.2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 1

[Steve Beattie]

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu
better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears
to be a "regular" (non-security) bug.  I have unmarked it as a security
issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to
cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy.
Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.
