[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#510450: Bug#510450: epiphany-browser: Epiphany "disappears" without warning

[Dave]

I attempted to install winbind 3.2.6 using dpkg -i, but it reported
that winbind 3.2.6 depends on samba-common:

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of winbind:
 winbind depends on samba-common (= 2:3.2.6-1~bpo50+1); however:
  Version of samba-common on system is 2:3.2.5-2.

Do I need to upgrade samba-common or somehow force install?

I couldn't figure how to make this work using aptitude or apt-get, so
resorted to dpkg after downloading the file.

Thanks,

David
