The project maintainers are welcome to declare vmhgfs unsupported, but
until they do I think the current situation is a regression in
functionality. vmhgfs-fuse just isn't a functional replacement yet.
(Background: I am using VMWare Fusion 8.0 on a Mac. I had a working
system which has broke on upgrading to Ubuntu 16.04 due to vmhgfs going
away, and unfortunately after trying a number of methods I still haven't
found a solution to replace it. NFS and CIFS to the host have not
worked out, and Samba client is currently broken. I am rather
desparately now trying a patched vmhgfs-fuse, but having vmhgfs kernel
module available would be more welcome.)
** Changed in: open-vm-tools (Ubuntu)
Status: Invalid => Confirmed
