@Nate - I hate to rain on your parade here, as it looks like it was quite a struggle to get everything working right for this package (and certainly, thanks a lot for your efforts).
The introduction of X11 dependencies into what is ostensibly a CLI package is not a good thing for those of us who have server systems which should not have X11. Please review bug #604998, and bug #391224 which put that situation in place (as well as Debian bug 561639, where that change was immediately rejected) - a --no-install-recommends workaround worked, except for those of us who wanted to automate the install with something like puppet. This change, to merge the X11 support components into the CLI tools package, has taken that situation from bad to worse, and has rendered this package completely unusable on systems that must not have X11 - I'm surprised that this change moved forward after bug #604998 was confirmed. Please think of the servers! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/776103 Title: package open-vm-dkms 2011.03.28-387002-0ubuntu2 fails to build against 2.6.39 kernels, due to missing linux/smp_lock.h To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/776103/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
