SUMMARY
-------

`dolphin-24.12.2-1.fc41.x86_64` doesn't enable `smb.service` if its preset is
set to `disabled`, and/or it is unstarted.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
------------------

What *I* did is the undermentioned, so it deliberately isn't generalised for
*trivial* reproduction elsewhere, but is reproducible:

1.      Installed `cpe:/o:fedoraproject:fedora:41`.
2.      Installed `dolphin-24.12.2-1.fc41.x86_64`:

        ~~~sh
        #!/usr/bin/env sh
        sudo dnf5 --refresh install -y dolphin-24.12.2-1.fc41.x86_64
        ~~~

3.      Navigated to [`$HOME/Public`][1].
4.      Right-clicked.
5.      Selected the "Properties" context menu entry.
6.      Selected the "Share" tab.
7.      Created a Samba password.
8.      Authorised the creation of a new Samba user, as prompted to by PolKit.
9.      Enabled sharing the directory via my LAN.
10.     Selected the "OK" button.

OBSERVED RESULT
---------------

> `net usershare add`: cannot convert name "Everyone" to a SID. The transport-connection attempt was refused by the remote system.. Maybe `smbd` is not running.

EXPECTED RESULT
---------------

The service should have been automatically enabled.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
--------------------

1.      ~~~sh
        #!/usr/bin/env sh
        kinfo
        ~~~

2.      > ~~~YAML
        > Operating System: Fedora Linux 41
        > KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.1
        > KDE Frameworks Version: 6.11.0
        > Qt Version: 6.8.2
        > Kernel Version: 6.13.4-200.fc41.x86_64 (64-bit)
