Package: open-vm-tools
Version: 2:10.0.5-3227872-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Usertags: usrmerge
Tags: patch
The package installs a symbolic link to a file with the same name in
both /sbin/ and /usr/sbin/, so it makes impossible to convert a system
to the merged /usr directories scheme.
mount(8) calls mount.vmhgfs using execve(2) and the explicit
/sbin/mount.vmhgfs path, so there is no point in having such a program
in /usr/sbin/ .
The attached patch moves the binary to /sbin/ where it belongs.
The link is broken anyway, so I can't see how the package could work at
all:
md@attila:/tmp/o$ dpkg-deb -x open-vm-tools_10.0.5-3227872-1_amd64.deb .
md@attila:/tmp/o$ ls -l usr/sbin/mount.vmhgfs
-rwxr-xr-x 1 md md 68504 Dec 26 18:12 usr/sbin/mount.vmhgfs*
md@attila:/tmp/o$ ls -l sbin/mount.vmhgfs
lrwxrwxrwx 1 md md 78 Dec 26 18:12 sbin/mount.vmhgfs ->
/build/open-vm-tools-10.0.5-3227872/debian/open-vm-tools/usr/sbin/mount.vmhgfs
md@attila:/tmp/o$
