As per Václav Šmilauer's post, all that's required after the samba installation is a restart of the session, i.e. logging out and logging back in. The current nautilus-share prompts the user after the auto- installation of samba (and libpam-smbpass) to restart the session. Hence, I'm marking this as fix released.
