I just ran "apt upgrade" on my DC (Ubuntu 18.04, Samba 4.10 from Louis
Repo) and it ended with error messages about unmet dependencies in regards
to libldb1.

You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
python3-ldb : Depends: libldb1 (= 2:1.5.5-1bionic~1) but
2:1.5.4-1ubuntu1.2 is installed
python3-samba : Depends: libldb1 (>= 2:1.5.5~) but 2:1.5.4-1ubuntu1.2 is
installed
Recommends: python3-gpg but it is not installed
samba : Depends: libldb1 (>= 2:1.5.5~) but 2:1.5.4-1ubuntu1.2 is installed
samba-dsdb-modules : Depends: libldb1 (> 2:1.5.5~) but 2:1.5.4-1ubuntu1.2
is installed
samba-libs : Depends: libldb1 (>= 2:1.5.5) but 2:1.5.4-1ubuntu1.2 is
installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages
(or
specify a solution).
I read some older threads here that say that an error with libldb1 is
expected due to some change in the ldb tools but it also says that the
command apt --fix-broken install should fix it which it apparently does not
for me.

Would appreciate your advice on how to go from here.
