Package: open-vm-tools
Version: 2008.02.13-77928-1
Severity: serious
Cause: renders package unusable
Tags: patch
On /etc/init.d/open-vm-tools script, the program names of vmware-checkvm and
vmware-guestd are wrong.
Instead of 'vmware-checkvm' there is 'checkvm' (and the path is wrong), and
instead of 'vmware-guestd' there is 'guestd'.
The init script present in the package always tells that it is not running on
a vm, as checkvm binary is not found.
In addition, the vmxnet detection code doesn't work, as the function always
returns 1.
I've attached the patch that fixes the script for both problems.
Bye,
Emilio Scalise
