If you really do have an issue with it, please file a new bug, with a
descriptive title and equally descriptive description, and if possible a
suggestion on how to make it better. Hence I'm not as "unarmed" as you might
think I am. Either way, my response earlier was mostly due to my annoyance at
the scathing remark made by PeterNZ. Hint: Asking nicely in a support forum
might yield better results than throwing insults around on a bug report.

Run *what* as sudo? Seriously, there weren't any commands to be run. It's all
point and click stuff, as you would have seen in my post had you actually read
it. The samba installation stage is even handled when you check the checkbox
"Share this folder" if it detects that Samba has not been installed.

By the way, I apologize for being a twit and expecting that point-and-click
stuff was straightforward and second nature. Apparently users don't know how to
use a mouse now.
