[Bug 1704446] [NEW] package samba 2:4.5.8+dfsg-0ubuntu0.17.04.3 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[Peter Campbell Smith]

Public bug reported:

Similar to bug 1693418 but is a newer version of samba.

It occurred when I did:
aptitude update
aptitude upgrade

Using Ubuntu release 17.04

I expected it to install and startup.
It didn't.
It was working before I did the latest update.
