todo

  • The package should be updated to follow the last version of Debian Policy (Standards-Version 4.6.2 instead of 4.6.1).

problems

  • There were override disparities found in suite unstable:
    • open-vm-tools: Override says admin - optional, .deb says admin - extra
    • open-vm-tools-desktop: Override says admin - optional, .deb says admin - extra
    • open-vm-tools-dev: Override says devel - optional, .deb says devel - extra
  • The package has a debian/watch file, but the last attempt to use it for checking for newer upstream versions failed with an error:
    In debian/watch no matching files for watch line   https://github.com/vmware/open-vm-tools/tags /vmware/open-vm-tools/archive/stable-([0-9.-]+).tar.gz
