Hi release team,
VMware asked me to change the boot order of vmtoolsd to start before
cloud init. This was necessary as the cloud-init is started early
in the boot process now - and without running vmtoolsd before
cloud-init a VM customization is not possible.
For details see
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=859677
https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-init/+bug/1667831
Debdiff is attached.
unblock open-vm-tools/2:10.1.5-5055683-3
Thanks,
Bernd
