As it is documented in the package docs, and a bug in the BTS, to support VMware Server, we'll need to build a second vmware-any-any-foo-source package from the same sources, which needs somebody with really serious make knowledge.

Just that nobody gets the wrong idea... ;-) You'd probably like to join efforts with Marc Haber who maintains vmware-package package in experimental :) Sure. I wasn't aware of that package. AFAICS that package handles only the VMware kernel modules right now. It could probably merged with the VMware Player parts of my package. I am not sure though that the vmware-any-any patch it is based upon buys us anything at least for the modules shipped with VMware Player. The VMware Player modules as packaged by me seem to work just fine with the stock 2.6.18 kernels of etch/sid.
