Public bug reported:

I hadn't noticed it immediately after samba package upgrade, but in an
attempt to sign into my samba shares once I get the share mounted and I
try and open a folder it appears empty where it worked flawlessly
before. I hoped that reinstalling the samba package would give me a
direction in where to go as I had done about 12 hours of searching for a
fix.

Upon reinstalling the package I got the attached error.

Using Ubuntu 16.10

Samba version -

I expected Samba to load and work

Samba loads in a pseudo erroneous state -
