    I have the same issue, except that samba-common was previously installed as a dependency of gvfs-backends:

    The following packages have unmet dependencies: samba : Depends: samba-common (= 2:4.2.10+dfsg-0+deb8u3) but 2:4.2.10+dfsg-0+deb8u2 is to be installed Depends: samba-common-bin (= 2:4.2.10+dfsg-0+deb8u3) but it is not going to be installed Recommends: attr Recommends: samba-vfs-modules but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

    It is preventing me from using the SMB printers in CUPS.
