   Why did you un-install the prior version -- -U does this
automatically? see: man rpm

To the contrary -- RPM is meeting its design goal of asking
you to simultaneously install ALL parts of an upgrade --
samba-2.2.2-X.i386.rpm also requires simultaneous installation
of its matching samba-common-2.2.2-X.i386.rpm thus:

   rpm -Uvh samba-2.2.2-X.i386.rpm \
                samba-common-2.2.2-x.i386.rpm

where "\" indicates the conventional line continuation.
