first you are using a beta version of fedora
additionally you are using updates-testing on a beta-release

finally "samba4" is alpha and will be for the near future
you decided to install "samba4" instead of "samba"

even Fedora 18 will contain samba-3.x for now
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=360

so why are you explicitly installing alpha software on beta-release?
what do you expect now?

downgrade to regular samba or simply wait / skip-broken for some time
