Package: open-vm-tools
Version: 2008.02.13-77928-2~bpo40+1
Severity: important
I now I report a backport, but I did check with 2008.06.03-96374-2 too
and there the init script contains the same bug.
The initscript of open-vm-tools tries to replace the module pcnet32 by
the module vmxnet even when vmxnet has not yet been build.
It should check that vmxnet exists and skip any further steps - like
unloading pcnet32 - in that case.
Maybe this stuff could better be solved by some udev magic?
