I can also install open-vm-tools-desktop just fine if needed.
There are multiple things going on atm - so to unconfuse version numbers:
1. you added the ppa with the proposed backport, that is
2:10.2.0-3ubuntu0.16.04.1~ppa2
Up until this morning it was 2:10.2.0-3ubuntu0.16.04.1~ppa1 so you might
have hit a time where
this was partially updated?
2. there is currently an SRU update to open-vm-tools (minor fix) in flight,
that is
10.0.7-3227872-5ubuntu1~16.04.1
to
10.0.7-3227872-5ubuntu1~16.04.1
Your error is:
open-vm-tools-desktop : Depends: open-vm-tools (=
2:10.2.0-3ubuntu0.16.04.1~ppa1) but 2:10.2.0-3ubuntu0.16.04.1~ppa2 is installed
That is odd, as open-vm-tools-desktop is in the ppa as well.
Could you check if the following looks the same (after another apt update)?
# apt-cache policy open-vm-tools open-vm-tools-desktop

That means both packages would be coming from the ppa.
