Public bug reported: Hello,
we (VMware) noticed that the latest versions of open-vm-tools in saucy and trusty are built from the devel snapshots. Of course we are happy that Ubuntu ships packages for open-vm-tools and support this. However, we do not recommend shipping devel snapshots. Please build packages from the stable branch instead (currently this is open-vm-tools-9.4.0-1280544.tar.gz). Code from the stable branches has been thoroughly tested by VMware, code from the devel snapshots has not and may contain many hidden bugs. Thanks, Oliver ** Affects: open-vm-tools (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1267254 Title: Please do not package devel snapshots To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/1267254/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
