Hello
I am new to nextcloud. I am getting below error:

"smbclient" is not installed. Mounting of “SMB / CIFS”, “SMB / CIFS using OC login” is not possible. Please ask your system administrator to install it.

I have installed ubuntu 20 (64 bit) desktop on my raspberry pi model 4 8 GB.
Installed nextcloud using command
sudo snap install nextcloud

After successful installation, I have installed smbclient using command
sudo apt install smbclient

after that I have enabled “external storage” from “apps”
then in the administrator settings I am opening “external storage” for setting up my samba share.

It is saying that smbclient is not installed.
Anyone have idea about what’s going wrong.

I would really appreciate your help.
