[Bug 1787210] Re: package samba 2:4.7.6+dfsg~ubuntu-0ubuntu2.2 failed to install/upgrade: installed samba package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1

[Tim Pointon]

Yes, this could be my scenario. I'm using Ubuntu 18.04 on a laptop with 
only WiFi connectivity.

The error that initiated this bug report happened while trying to apply 
an update for which I was prompted and accepted..

Thanks,
