Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.
It seems clear to me that open-vm-tools in Trusty should Break/Replace
open-vm-toolbox (<< 2:0~) [or similar] to resolve this. I've confirmed
that the packages in the archive do conflict as your error message
described. But I haven't yet managed to reproduce your failure. Doing so
would help me verify my understanding and test the solution.
I'll carry on looking at this.
