I assume that you will be reinstalling samba-common, and as such you do 
not need to worry about the dependencies that you will be breaking for the 
few brief moments until you reinstall samba-common.  Therefore, I am 
adding the "--nodeps" flag.

rpm -e --nodeps --allmatches samba-common

HTH,
Barry
