Package: open-vm-dkms Version: 2:8.8.0+2012.05.21-724730-2 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer, Unfortunately even the latest version of open-vm-dkms fails to build modules and hence fails to install: ------------------------------ Deleting module version: 2012.05.21 completely from the DKMS tree. ------------------------------ Done. Loading new open-vm-tools-2012.05.21 DKMS files... Building only for 3.2.0-3-686-pae Building initial module for 3.2.0-3-686-pae Error!
