Unless, most likely, you've since removed the packages (and open-vm-dkms
and zerofree)
There's an easy test:-
$ dpkg --get-selections | grep 'zerofree\|open-vm'

Woops! No it won't. Apologies to whoever suggested that (I didn't strip
the attributions.) --search is the long-hand for -S.
It *will* search for a file installed as part of a package and the
following should happen if openvm-tools and openvm-toolbox have been
installed and removed at some point (but not purged):-
$ dpkg -S vmtoolsd
open-vm-tools: /etc/pam.d/vmtoolsd
