Package: open-vm-tools Version: 2:8.8.0+2011.12.20-562307-1 Severity: grave Tags: upstream Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer, Today I installed the Linux 3.2 kernel, rebooted into it and tried to compile the open-vm-tools for that kernel. The build failed, the relevant error message is: CC [M] /usr/src/modules/open-vm/modules/linux/vmhgfs/fsutil.o /usr/src/modules/open-vm/modules/linux/vmhgfs/fsutil.c: In function ‘HgfsChangeFileAttributes’: /usr/src/modules/open-vm/modules/linux/vmhgfs/fsutil.c:610:4: error: assignment of read-only member ‘i_nlink’ full build log is attached. The versions of the open-vm-* packages are a little bit out of sync: sid:/usr/src/modules/open-vm# dpkg -l open-vm-tools open-vm-source Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold |Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend |/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Description +++-=============================-=============================-========================================================================== ii open-vm-source 2:8.8.0+2011.09.23-491607-1 Source for VMware guest systems driver ii open-vm-tools 2:8.8.0+2011.12.20-562307-1 tools and components for VMware guest systems (CLI tools) When looking at http://packages.debian.org/open-vm-source only version 1:8.4.2-261024-1 is listed. Maybe updating open-vm-source to the latest version would solve the problem, but it doesn't seem to be packaged.
