[Bug 1500581] Re: open-vm-tools-dkms fails to build on kernel 4.2 (Wily Werewolf) [error: implicit declaration of function ‘nd_set_link’]
i think the situation is more like Ubuntu has not yet update their open- vm-tools-dkms package to pick the 9.10.3 or 10.0.5 release of open-vm- tools from github. when you trying to install vmware-tools shipped with vmware player, if it detect there is open-vm-tools installed (released by Ubuntu) then it will not replace it as we are in favor of the distro packaged one. > dpkg -l open-vm-tools-dkms the one in the repository is still 9.10.2 ... i have not try the PPA yet.
