Close Louis, but wrong package :-)

Package: samba Version: 2:4.1.18+dfsg-3~inverse1

Replaces: libsamdb0 (<< 4.0.0~alpha17~), python-samba (<< 
2:4.1.4+dfsg-3), samba-ad-dc, samba-common \
(<= 2.0.5a-2), samba-doc (<< 2:4.0.5~), samba-libs (<< 2:4.1.4+dfsg-2), 
samba4

The Ubuntu 'samba' package should be replaced by the Inverse 'samba' 
package but is failing on the post-install script which seems  to do the 
weirdest things.

Does the OP have a smb.conf ? is samba running ?
