> Setting up samba-common (2:4.19.5+dfsg-4ubuntu9) ...
> Replacing config file /etc/samba/smb.conf with new version
samba-common's postinst has:
if [ "$1" = configure ]; then
...
ucf --three-way --debconf-ok /usr/share/samba/smb.conf "$CONFIG"
That follows normal config file rules. ucf uses a md5sum database to check if
the config file was changed or not, and that DB is in /var/lib/ucf.
You could run this prior to the upgrade:
$ ucfq /etc/samba/smb.conf
Configuration file Package Exists Changed
/etc/samba/smb.conf samba-common Yes No
In my case, it wasn't changed, so an upgrade would replace it.
Let's change it:
$ echo "# test" | sudo tee -a /etc/samba/smb.conf
[sudo] password for andreas:
# test
$ ucfq /etc/samba/smb.conf
Configuration file Package Exists Changed
/etc/samba/smb.conf samba-common Yes Yes
It will look at /var/lib/ucf/hashfile to check the md5sum of the
original config file.
Just thinking out loud here, do you have symlinks at play perhaps? Is
/etc/samba/smb.conf an actual file?
