[Pkg-samba-maint] Broken Samba4

[Niklas Andersson]

Hi,

Tried to install Samba4 in both Ubuntu 12.04 (latest alpha) and Ubuntu
12.10 (beta 2) and the installation doesn't work as it ends with an error
and the package half-installed.

There is a nice howto that explains how to create a work-around. Edit
/var/dpkg/status and set half-installed to installed, etc.

It is ugly of course and I think it is better to set the package to
installed from the start. What is the problem keeping you from setting the
package to installed when running "apt-get install samba4"?

Regards,
Niklas Andersson
