I don't see how update-initramfs uses samba.  It should be a serious bug
in initramfs-tools to touch python3-samba in any way.  Please investigate
how exactly update-initramfs tries to run python3-samba code, and file a
bug there.

Speaking of invalid escape sequences, these are just warnings, will eventually
be fixed in a subsequent update.  The warnings are not due to samba bugs really
but due to python changed its rules.

I'm merging this bug with #1063149, and marking both as wontfix.
