** Description changed:
Hello,
My name is Nate, and I'm responsible for keeping the open-vm-tools
package up to date.
I am requesting that ioctl (specifically FIFREEZE/FITHAW ioctl) please
be compiled into the kernel (if it hasn't already) because vmsync
doesn't compile since newer kernel (namely 3.6 and greater). Yes, I
know it's depreciated but it need to be done.
I'm reporting this now because I've known about this for a month or so
because I have a scratch machine and both that and Ubuntu are different
environments, and I just installed Raring for the first time. And since
Ubuntu's kernel has more stuff that the normal kernel, I wanted to know
if the module would compile.
Here's part of the info I got:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/apport/package-hooks/dkms_packages.py", line 22, in
<module> import apport
ImportError: No module named apport
Error! Build of vmsync.ko failed for: 3.7.0-5-generic (i686)
This is coming directly from upstream
(http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3579185&group_id=204462&atid=989708).
I can do some of the work from my end (taking out mentions of the vmsync
module for dkms from the debian folder, and upload the new config to bzr
and wait for approval). But in order for me to upload and mark (my
packaging) for approval, I need this to be done please.
- Obviously, I'm posting this so I also get a bug report number, that I
- can put in my packaging's changelog
