Public bug reported:
I'm in the process of getting the August release ready, but I just
wanted to get a few things out the way first.
I'm using Ubuntu Oneiric Alpha 3, and I'm using open-vm-tools from the
Main Oneiric Repo. During the install, I get some warnings during the
DKMS install stage (It's dated but it's still there).
Loading new open-vm-tools-2011.07.19 DKMS files...
make: *** vmxnet: No such file or directory. Stop.
make: *** vsock: No such file or directory. Stop.
First Installation: checking all kernels...
Building only for 3.0.0-7-generic
Building for architecture i686
Building initial module for 3.0.0-7-generic
make: *** vmxnet: No such file or directory. Stop.
make: *** vsock: No such file or directory. Stop.
I know it's dated, but I was hoping that this was a bug in the source
packaging, but it isn't (because it's gotten worse in the August
packaging).
After using Google to find a solution (using the generic query "No such
file or directory. Stop."), I have found that this is an issue with the
3.0.0 kernel (I think, the results pointed to a kernel issue)
I'm looking for a patch for the open-vm-tools packaging.
