Well, it should be allowed to proceed only if you are sure that smbfs will work with all later versions of libsmbclient, which might not be the case.
Anyway, the problem here seems to be that you enabled -updates or -security at one point, got samba common...-1ubuntu3.4 installed. Then -updates or -security were disabled and you were left with only the release packages... So installing smbfs would try to install -1ubuntu3. I'll close this as Invalid since you solved it. I'd recommend adding the -security repository again, apt-get update and apt-get upgrade to get all the packages at the -1ubuntu3.4 level. ** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- smbfs, samba & samba-common are uninstallable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/345330 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
