Just pushed to my Virtual Test PPA. This doesn't have 2011.03.28-387002-0ubuntu4 because as I said, I can't access the GUI on my Oneiric Alpha 2 VM because of the GDM freezing up. And I can't create pbuilder environment (apparently debootstrap is being a pain in the ass), so we'll have to wait 5 hours to see if the patch works. I'm saying there is a 40% that it'll work.
If Successful, I'm going to copy the source to my regular PPA and rebuild for Natty, just because. The Original Bug Report: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3354213&group_id=204462&atid=989708 The report was closed for being "out of date." And it was kind of was, but I adapted it (sans one section that said it was only for 8.4.2, which is why I say 40%). And the patch was made for Fedora 15, which has GCC 4.6.0. ** Bug watch added: SourceForge.net Tracker #3354213 http://sourceforge.net/support/tracker.php?aid=3354213 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to open-vm-tools in 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-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
