Feel free to create an account on salsa and send merge requests, they will go trough the CI automatically and make your (no need to type long bug emails)_and my work easier. How important is this issue for you? Does it need to be fixed in the stable releases? I've uploaded the fixed version to unstable, all backports will follow when it hits testing.

Bug#1056205: open-vm-tools containerInfo plugin is being installed in incorrect directory
Package: open-vm-tools Version: 2:12.3.x open-vm-tools containerInfo plugin is being installed in incorrect directory VMware's internal builds and testing of upcoming versions of open-vm-tools is based on the debian packaging source seen at https://salsa.debian.org/vmware-packaging-team/pkg-open-vm-tools/ The debian/rules script contains the following related to the positioning of the containerInfo plugin # moving open-vm-tools-containerinfo files mkdir -p debian/open-vm-tools-containerinfo/usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)/open-vm-tools/plugin/containerinfo/ mv debian/open-vm-tools/usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)/open-vm-tools/plugins/vmsvc/libcontainerInfo.so debian/open-vm-tools-containerinfo/usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)/open-vm-tools/plugins/containerinfo/ The optional containerInfo plugin, if installed, will be run by the vmtoolsd service. The libcontainerInfo.so plugin should be installed in the open-vm-tools/plugins/vmsvc directory as is the libserviceDiscovery.so plugin. Please update the debian/rules file with: # moving open-vm-tools-containerinfo files mkdir -p debian/open-vm-tools-containerinfo/usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)/open-vm-tools/plugi/vmsvc/ mv debian/open-vm-tools/usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)/open-vm-tools/plugins/vmsv/libcontainerInfo.so debian/open-vm-tools-containerinfo/usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)/open-vm-tools/plugins/vmsvc/ Have filed BZ with Ubuntu at:https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/2043897 Thanks, John Wolfe
