Hi Bernd,

Please refer the fix I made for Fedora

It is a simple packaging step to be done in your pre-uninstall step. Could
you please look into it?

It may easy understand the problem, thanks!

Best regards,

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?

Thanks & best regards,

Bernd

Bug#825810: After uninstall open-vm-tools in debian, the open-vm-tools version number is not 0

2016-05-30 Thread Yanhui He 
Hi Bernd,

Thanks for your quickly response!

This bug is the same as the one of Bug#825812 for my re-send. Please
ignore one of them.

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)


I don’t know where to see the open-vm-tools version shown except guest OS.
Please see the following detail.

Description of problem:

As the title, after uninstall open-vm-tools in debian 7.9 & 7.10 & 8.2 &
8.3 & 8.4, the shown open-vm-tools version number is not 0.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 9.4.6

How reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install open-vm-tools 9.4.6 package
2. The version number of open-vm-tools can be seen and it is not equal to 0
3. Uninstall open-vm-tools 9.4.6 package

Actual results: The version number of open-vm-tools can be seen and it is
still not equal to 0

Expected results: The version number of open-vm-tools can be seen and it
is equal to 0

If need other information that I can provide, please don’t hesitate to
tell me.


Thanks in advance!

Best regards,
Yanhui

what do you mean with 'the shown open-vm-tools version number is not 0'?
What are you looking at?
Please show me the exact commands you were using.

'the shown open-vm-tools version number is not 0' does not make sense
without not even knowing where something was shown.

Thanks,

Bernd
