Hi Yanhui! > This bug is the same as the one of Bug#825812 for my re-send. Please > ignore one of them.
I've merged them, don't worry :) > When install debian in Vmware ESXi Host Server, it will display the > open-vm-tools for each guest OS in vSphere Client, such as the attached > screenshot of “guest info on vSphere Client.png”. > > The right display should be: > Vmware Tools: Not running, version 0 (Guest Managed) > > But the wrong display is shown as below. > Vmware Tools: Not running, version 2147483647 (Guest Managed) Actually I have no idea what I should do against that :) While removing the package vmtoolsd is being stopped (sigterm + sigkill if it doesn't react) and that is all we do. It is no problem to execute something else when the package is being removed, but then you'd have to tell me what to run :) Also, as a related question: is there a way to tell from "version 2147483647 (Guest Managed)" which open-vm-tools version is avtually installed?
