I've managed to reproduce this bug using the provided smb.conf.old file in the zip attachment and simulating an upgrade from gutsy to hardy.
If I use the karmic version of ucf, I instead get this message: mostrare le differenze tra le versioni There are no non-white space differences in the files. A close inspection of the files shows that this is the diff: diff -u /var/run/samba/upgrades/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.conf --- /var/run/samba/upgrades/smb.conf 2009-08-22 14:17:12.000000000 -0700 +++ /etc/samba/smb.conf 2009-08-22 14:17:12.000000000 -0700 @@ -307,6 +307,7 @@ ; preexec = /bin/mount /cdrom ; postexec = /bin/umount /cdrom + [backups] force user = mauro public = yes So the message is correct, and it appears the bug is fixed. (The Italian mistranslation is also a bug, but is not the cause of this upgrade failure; I'll file that bug separately with the Debian ucf maintainer.) ** Changed in: ucf (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released ** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- package samba-common 3.0.28a-1ubuntu4 failed to install/upgrade: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/224061 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
