Public bug reported: The package doesn't build our kernels, no patches in the world will be get it work. The only way for it to work is through VMware itself because the package a brand new file that only they supply.
Also, do you know the incompatibilities that have come up now that you just decided to start syncing with Debian without consulting the person who has put his hard work and time into the package. We need to get the devel package to be working 100% (with trusty), then get it working with the stable release, then we can start syncing Debian with our changes. I feel incredibly betrayed that this change was made without an e-mail. I may not be the "maintainer," but I've put my time in getting this package working over the course of the last couple of cycles. ** 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/1269985 Title: Revert package back to Devel release To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/1269985/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
