Looks like VGAuthservice is not in the package: vmware@ubuntu:~$ dpkg -L open-vm-tools | grep VGAuth vmware@ubuntu:~$
Looks like the package is built without xmlsecurity, and without xerces. >From debian/rules: override_dh_auto_configure: dh_auto_configure --sourcedirectory=open-vm-tools -- \ --prefix=/usr \ --libdir=\$${prefix}/lib \ --without-kernel-modules \ --with-pic \ --without-xmlsecurity --without-xerces \ CFLAGS="-fPIC -Wno-deprecated-declarations $(CFLAGS)" \ CUSTOM_PROCPS_NAME=procps \ CXXFLAGS='-std=gnu++11' find . -name Makefile -exec sed -i '/.*CPPFLAGS.*/s,-std=c++11,,' '{}' \; This will disable vgauth, unless --enable-xmlsec1 is specified. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1677196 Title: missing the executive file VGAuthService for open-vm-tool-10.1.5 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/1677196/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
