Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 15.04. Fully updated as of this writing. I installed system-
config-samba from the repos to manage some samba shares. Upon
installation, the "Samba" application icon never appears in the list of
applications in the dash. I did however attempt to launch it via
terminal as root, but what I got was this.

root@JSZ835:/etc# system-config-samba
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/sbin/system-config-samba", line 45, in <module>
    mainWindow.MainWindow(debug_flag)
  File "/usr/share/system-config-samba/mainWindow.py", line 121, in __init__
    self.basic_preferences_win = basicPreferencesWin.BasicPreferencesWin(self, 
self.xml, self.samba_data, self.samba_backend, self.main_window)
  File "/usr/share/system-config-samba/basicPreferencesWin.py", line 97, in 
__init__
    self.admin = libuser.admin()
SystemError: could not open configuration file `/etc/libuser.conf': No such 
file or directory

If I run "touch /etc/libuser.conf", then re-run system-config-samba as
the root user, it opens the interface. Even afterwards, the application
icon is no where to be found in the dash.

I also noticed the desktop file had this entry: Exec=gksu system-config-
samba

However, gksu is seemingly not installed by default on 15.04.

Thank you for your hard work, dedication, and time! Have a great day.
