Package: open-vm-source
Version: 2008.05.02-90473-1
Severity: important
Justification: fails to build from source
open-vm-source 2008.05.02-90473-1 fails to compile on my system with
kernel 2.6.24. I suspect that it's a problem with the header
directory paths (gcc's -I option).

this is known old (broken) version of linux-kbuild. please, make sure
you have *current* sid by updating *all* packages and using *only* the
newest available packages.
however, as 2.6.25-2 is now available in the archive, this bug can be
closed, as I hereby do.
