Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Nate Muench (n-minker) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Patch to fix (or help fix) build issues with glib 2.31 Initial Comment: As it stands right now open-vm-tools (May dev package) doesn't build with glib 2.31 or greater because some of the threads have been depreciated. So, I've working on getting packaging the current dev release for Ubuntu Quantal. I've attached a patch that isolates the lines of code that needs to be changed. I had a problem with vmtoolsd (it was giving me a segment fault at boot), so that part isn't right I think the easiest way to fix this is to add if statements. Please, fix it. Don't say you won't fix it because "only effects Ubuntu," but other distros use these newer versions of glib. I've done all I can with my patch, I can't figure out why vmtoolsd is giving me faults.
