Bug#487606: cups.prerm deletes /usr/lib/cups/backend/smb which belongs to smbclient

Package: cups
Version: 1.3.7-7
Severity: serious
Justification: see debian-devel thread

cups.prerm deletes the /usr/lib/cups/backend/smb symlink which
belongs to smbclient package. Several systems here were bitten
by this during the cupsys->cups transition, as cupsys.prerm
had the same problem.

I couldn't find a specific policy section which prohibited this
so I asked on debian-devel where DD's said it was so obviously
wring that it didn't need a policy section:

http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2008/06/msg00613.html

Workaround is to reinstall smbclient on top of itself in order
for SMB printers to work.
