That was the clue I needed.  Apparently sometime between hardy and karmic, the 
nmblookup binary moved from samba-common to samba-common-bin.  This means that 
the maintainer for the Ubuntu karmic package needs to add samba-common-bin as 
a dependency to the backuppc package.

The maintainer of the backuppc package is Ludovic Drolez, who I've CC'ed.  
Ludovic, this may be an Ubuntu-specific bug.  But this problem (backuppc 
package fails installation on Ubuntu karmic because of missing nmblookup 
binary) will happen for squeeze and lenny-backports.  Would you mind updating 
the package?

Chris, your solution is:

apt-get install samba-common-bin

Tyler
