My samba 3.0.4-3 install was working fine last night on debian 2.4.23 unstable (see uname below) and happily tranferring large files at 77 Mbps across my LAN (a first! but that's another story) until, suddenly, it stopped and would only move data at about .05 Mbps. Investigation was futile, so I uninstalled Samba and then tried to reinstall. That's where the trouble began:
FAF:~# apt-get install samba Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that the package is simply not installable and a bug report against that package should be filed. The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
samba: Depends: libcupsys2-gnutls10 (>= 1.1.20final-1) but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages
Installing libcupsys2-gnutls10 would require removing about 60 packages including KDE, ark, and a dozen libraries.
I'd be grateful for any advice, including telling me that this sort of problem usually resolves itself in a day or so.
Some additional system information:

Hope this helps, and please LMK if more information is needed.
