Today, I upgrate hoary, like other days. This install a new version of Nautilus
now, I can't connect to my samba server from nautilus,
it say : "smb:///[my path] is not a valid location"
Nautilus was compiled without smb support ?

This is probably caused by something with gnome-vfs, thats the gnome part that provides virtual filesystems for samba, sftp etc. You could probably try to reinstall that package.

From reading the desktop devel mailing list at http://mail.gnome.org/ it shows that gnome-vfs is being reworked at the moment, and since Hoary seems to upgrade gnome from cvs, it is prob. a result of that.
The assumption that Hoary a gnome cvs build is based off the calculator utility...(I'm sure you could prob. confim this or discredit it by reading they're mailing lists... ;-) )I read about a patch to it to add a new Basic veiw of the calculator....and behold a few days later my ubuntu distro updated my calculator with the new view! You should expect to see some breakage, like the nautilus problem when using the development debs. (I got hit with the alsa/oss conflicting driver bug ), but all in all Hoary has been pretty stable for me. Just wanna say Great Job to everyone who has contributed to Ubuntu. -Mike Powers

This is related to a problem in libsmbclient 3.0.8, which has been fixed in
Debian's 3.0.8-2. I've made gnome-vfs2 build-depend on that version, so it's
just waiting for a sync and rebuild of both. :-)
FIXED.
