I ran into the same issue and downloaded samba-common from
debian-jessie:
https://packages.debian.org/jessie/all/samba-common/download
then installed it with dpkg -i <package> and then continue with apt-get
install samba

Devuan has and older version of this package, and it blocks the
installation.
