[Bug 1309439] Re: package samba-libs 2:4.1.6+dfsg-1ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1
I encountered this bug on a laptop/client system upgrading to 14.04LTS. This bug also prevented me from using sudo. I found that booting into the recovery console and using dpkg to purge libpam-winbind got me back the ability to use sudo, then after renaming /var/lib/samba/private/secrets.tdb I could finish upgarding and repairig packages. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1309439 Title: package samba-libs 2:4.1.6+dfsg-1ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/1309439/+subscriptions -- 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

This bug, experienced during a upgrade from 13.10, put my server in a state where I couldn't use su or sudo to become root to fix it. I rebooted the server from the console, and then found that it would no longer boot at all. I had to boot from CD-ROM to finish the upgrade. Because it can render the system completely unusable, this bug is of critical importance. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1309439 Title: package samba-libs 2:4.1.6+dfsg-1ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/1309439/+subscriptions -- 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
