1. Upgrade from proposed
Binaries usually installed are open-vm-tools and open-vm-tools-desktop
I see 10.2.0-3~... in Xenial and Artful, checking if the upgrade works without 
issues.

On the upgrade one sees a list of new dependencies libdrm2, libudev,
libxml2 libxmlsec1 libxmlsec1-openssl pciutils and iproute2 -
fortunately all are in main - so no undetected component mismatch.

Note: as host I used VMWare Workstation 14.1.1 and systems installed
from 16.04.4 and 17.10.1 iso as of today.

Artful: upgraded without issues
Xenial: upgraded withous issues

Note: the default console setup can't copy and paste, so no full log
here :-/

2. This bug in particular is about making the new version available.
Check vmtoolsd -v for the version being on 10.2
Artful: ok 10.2.0.1608
Xenial: ok 10.2.0.1608

Per above (and the extensive precheck on the content-equal ppa by
VMWare) - setting to verified
