Per Kai, I'll downgrade Wine, but I'm reopening a wishlist samba task
because it is in fact possible to do the right thing here.

As Thierry and Anders pointed out above, this might be causing breakage.
See bug #605326, for example.
Considering we are installing recommended package by default, this ought
to be reviewed. I think winbind should be made a Suggests of wine
instead, since the NTLM authentication feature is not
In maverick, now that the winbind package configures a PAM module by
default (bug 282751), this is more serious than just starting a useless
daemon.
One side effect of pam_winbind is that sudo now prompts for a second
password if you hit Ctrl+C at the first prompt. Because this second
password
This has been historically causing more breakage than it should, IMHO.
Lots of people that just want to run a Windows game end up with a broken
winbindd on their workstation as a result...
Scott: how much does Wine depend on ntlm-auth ? It seems like for most
Wine usage, NTLM authentication is
Another side-affect of this is, that after installing winbindd, samba
tries to authenticate every connecting user though winbind, which
effectively renders security=share nonfunctional.
It took quite some time to debug what’s wrong with samba, so installing
wine shouldn’t break samba-shares!

It would be possible to have winbind only started before ntlm_auth is
used, but this could mean the user would have to wait some time before
being able to use ntlm_auth from wine.

Wine needs the winbind package for its ntlm-auth functions. Ideally,
these would be provided by a minimalistic version of the samba package
that had no such daemon. So, I am retargetting this bug towards samba
(which provides winbind). Thank you for reporting!

Sorry, I got confused by earlier reports saying that installing winbind
(and just winbind) caused things to break, I figured something more
substantial had to be going on
