Hello!

Only freeipa-server-trust-ad package depends on samba. If you haven't 
configured AD trust you can safely remove samba (and also 
freeipa-server-trust-ad package if you've installed it).
samba-common contains files for samba client and server so removing it 
may remove applications that can behave as samba client.
