Fail is from ./open-vm-tools-desktop.prerm
+ ./open-vm-tools-desktop.prerm remove
+ pkill -USR1 -f (vmtoolsd.*vmusr|vmware-user)
+ true
+ [ -d /run/systemd/system ]
+ deb-systemd-invoke stop run-vmblock\x2dfuse.mount
+ [ -d /run/systemd/system ]
+ [ remove = remove ]
+ deb-systemd-invoke stop run-vmblockx2dfuse.mount
Failed to stop run-vmblockx2dfuse.mount: Unit run-vmblockx2dfuse.mount not 
loaded.

That is actually by:
# Automatically added by dh_systemd_start/10.7.2ubuntu2
if [ -d /run/systemd/system ] && [ "$1" = remove ]; then
        deb-systemd-invoke stop run-vmblock\x2dfuse.mount >/dev/null
fi
# End automatically added section

If e.g. installe din a container the modprobe fails anyway and it can't fuse.
There might be other reasons for the service to fail that are "ok" just like 
this.

Further more it seems "ok" to not start, see the || true
# Automatically added by dh_systemd_start/10.7.2ubuntu2
if [ -d /run/systemd/system ]; then
        systemctl --system daemon-reload >/dev/null || true
        deb-systemd-invoke start run-vmblock\x2dfuse.mount >/dev/null || true
fi
# End automatically added section


I wonder if it would be right to generate also the stop with a || true.
Maybe not as simple as that, but kind of a
1. stop it (ignore errors)
2. if not running, then all ok
3. only if after stop it is still running it is an error (e.g. can't remove 
while running)

But that is a generic thing so it should be filed to debhelper as well
