[Bug 1790730] Re: package samba-common 2:4.3.11+dfsg-0ubuntu0.16.04.16 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 128

[Andreas Hasenack]

It looks fine now, I believe it was due to the old bug that is now fixed
(the one about unitialized values). Also, you should probably remove the
segler-alex ppa as it does not have xenial packages.

I'll mark this bug as invalid for samba as it happened in another
package, related to debconf, which is now fixed. Please reopen it if you
hit this problem again.

Thanks!
