Of course you need to run apt-get build-dep open-vm-tools.
Please read the Debian admin book or something else which tells you
how to use these tools, or just wait for the official backport.
I'm happy to help with bugs but there are better places to ask
for basic help.

Thanks Bernd!
I did it on my virtual machine and had a snapshot before did it. Thanks
a
lot for you reminder!
I still update glibc failed by modify the "/etc/apt/source.list".
Please see the attached screenshot of “Debian8.4 OVT needed glibc
update
error1.png”.
OK, I decide to wait for about a week and install it from back ports.

use deb-src, not deb!
what you were doung will upgrade your system to unstable....
apt-get update
apt-get -t sid install libc6 libc6-dev libc6-dbg
During the installation, it requires to update the kernel version on
Debian8.4 and failed of course.
Do you have any other better method?
OK, I will wait for about a week and install it from back ports.
Thanks a lot!

- create a backport, it will install all build dependencies.
Or just wait about a week, then you can install it from backports.

Hi Bernd,
If I configure open-vm-tools on Debian 8.4, it will report.
# ./configure --disable-deploypkg
configure: error: glib2 >= 2.14.0 is required
Do you know how to install glib2 on Debian8.4?
Thanks!

Hi,
I have verified VmwareTools 10.0.9 on latest Debian 8.4 64bit.
It’s
OK!
For some compiling error, such as the glib version is lower than
the
open-vm-tools-10.0.9 required, open-vm-tools-10.0.9 is not used.
what did you exactly do? The package is in unstable and is not
compatible
to Debian 8.4 - you'd eitehr have to use unstable or backport it
or
wait for an official backport.
:)
Best regards,
Bernd
Thanks a lot!
