grexk: thanks for the patch. A few nits for future reference:
- LP closers are generally of the form (LP: #nn) - you didn't have the hash
- It looks like you added a superfluous line to set SRC_VERSION in debian/rules
- Your version number was appropriate for a PPA upload, but not for upload

Thanks for letting us know. In the meantime, you can work around that by
using the absolute path to execute vmtoolsd with the --background option
(e.g. /usr/bin/vmtoolsd --background ...).

The vmtoolsd issue is a problem in the vmtoolsd source, not the package

I just installed open-vm-dkms_2009.06.18-172495-0~ppa1_all.deb on a
server. The vmware server said that the tools were not running, so I
checked ps, and sure enough, vmtoolsd was not running.
I ran "strace vmtoolsd" and this is the end of the output:

With open-vm-tools the way it is now, if a kernel upgrade is performed
(as happens often with security upgrades), and you forget to re-compile
open-vm-sources, at next boot the system will have some major issues
(like networking doesn't come up). With automated security installs
