Question #214401 on samba4 in Ubuntu changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba4/+question/214401

thenetworth proposed the following answer:
The error message you encountered suggests that there was a permission
issue when running the post-installation script for the "samba4" package
in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. The "Permission denied" error typically occurs when
the script doesn't have the necessary executable permissions or when the
user running the script doesn't have sufficient privileges. Open a
terminal and navigate to the /var/lib/dpkg/info/ directory. Use the ls
-l command to list the files and their permissions. Look for the
https://thenetworth.co/ryan-reynolds-net-worth/ "samba4.postinst" file
and verify that it has the executable permission set. The permission
should be -rwxr-xr-x or similar. If the permissions are incorrect, you
can try changing them using the chmod command. For example: sudo chmod
+x samba4.postinst.
