Comment 20 for bug 260687

I have had the same problem.

Samba was installed a fews days ago. Today i've installed Crossover Games, which i deinstalled a few minutes later.
Later i would start synaptic but it doesn't worked. Every time i wanted to open a program using sudo or gksudo/gksu i got only one message: "Segmentation fault". Nothing else.

dpkg --purge libpam-smbpass worked for me.
