Package: open-vm-tools
Version: 2:12.3.x
open-vm-tools containerInfo plugin is being installed in incorrect directory
VMware's internal builds and testing of upcoming versions of open-vm-tools is
based on the
debian packaging source seen at
https://salsa.debian.org/vmware-packaging-team/pkg-open-vm-tools/
The debian/rules script contains the following related to the positioning of
the containerInfo plugin
# moving open-vm-tools-containerinfo files
mkdir -p
debian/open-vm-tools-containerinfo/usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)/open-vm-tools/plugin/containerinfo/
mv
debian/open-vm-tools/usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)/open-vm-tools/plugins/vmsvc/libcontainerInfo.so
debian/open-vm-tools-containerinfo/usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)/open-vm-tools/plugins/containerinfo/
The optional containerInfo plugin, if installed, will be run by the vmtoolsd
service.
The libcontainerInfo.so plugin should be installed in the
open-vm-tools/plugins/vmsvc directory as is the libserviceDiscovery.so plugin.
Please update the debian/rules file with:
# moving open-vm-tools-containerinfo files
mkdir -p
debian/open-vm-tools-containerinfo/usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)/open-vm-tools/plugi/vmsvc/
mv
debian/open-vm-tools/usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)/open-vm-tools/plugins/vmsv/libcontainerInfo.so
debian/open-vm-tools-containerinfo/usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)/open-vm-tools/plugins/vmsvc/
Have filed BZ with Ubuntu
