1.9.18 should be fine. It's the version of samba the package came from.
I still use smbfsx 1.9.18

Yes I know, and I find it equally annoying, which is one of the reasons I
don't use dselect after I've installed the initial system, unless I _want_
to upgrade the whole lot.

I use apt, and stay the hell away from dselect.

Hopefully the new apt frontend that will appear in the next few versions
of debian will make this a bit easier.  Perhaps someone else on the list
who follows the Debian news a little more closely than I do can comment on
this (Greg? Lindsay?)
