Hi,
The following condition caused the failure:
ConditionVirtualization=vmware was not met
After commenting it out vmtoolsd started successfully. For what it's
worth, the same condition fails in VMware vmplayer.
please run systemd-detect-virt and show the output, then install
systemd from buster-backports and run it again and see if it
makes a difference.
