I have solved "by hand" creating directory /usr/share/doc/samba-3.6.25/swat/ and copying there the contents from the swat directory from the sources.
(In reply to praise.tazio from comment #3) > I have solved "by hand" creating directory /usr/share/doc/samba-3.6.25/swat/ > and > copying there the contents from the swat directory from the sources. I can confirm this workaround works.
Please reopen & update this bug if existing samba4 versions are still affected
