Package: open-vm-tools Version: open-vm-tools service (vmtoolsd) fails to
start Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,

* What led up to the situation? Tried to start vmtoolsd

* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)?
n/a

* What was the outcome of this action? Condition not met, start failed

* What outcome did you expect instead? vmtoolsd starts

The following condition caused the failure:

ConditionVirtualization=vmware was not met

After commenting it out vmtoolsd started successfully. For what it's worth,
the same condition fails in VMware vmplayer.
