Public bug reported:

I upgraded my 18.04 system to 20.04 a week ago. Today I did a apt-get dist-upgrade and new Samba version where there, and I tried upgrading. However, I got the following error:
 
Setting up samba-common-bin (2:4.11.6+dfsg-0ubuntu1.1) ...
Checking smb.conf with testparm
testparm: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/samba/libsamba-sockets.so.0: undefined symbol: smb_strtoul, version SAMBA_UTIL_0.0.1
dpkg: error processing package samba-common-bin (--configure):
 installed samba-common-bin package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 127
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of samba:
 samba depends on samba-common-bin (= 2:4.11.6+dfsg-0ubuntu1.1); however:
  Package samba-common-bin is not configured yet.

dpkg: error processing package samba (--configure):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
No apport report written because the error message indicates its a followup error from a previous failure.
                          Errors were encountered while processing:
 samba-common-bin
 samba
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

It seems to fail at testparm of smb.conf, so I reverted that one temporarily to the standard smb.conf, not my own customized one. Still it always fails. 
I removed all samba and smb packages, and reinstalled, same issue.
