Hi Yanhuih, So this was either a one-off case or a broken setup. You mentioned that you had to delete /var/lib/dpkg/lock. That usually just means there is an apt process running, probably updates in the background right after install. Maybe (but even that is unlikely) this affected your case (you should never need to delete that file).
For a normal case installing vm tools it seems to work just fine. Setting incomplete unless we find a reproducible way that proves this is a real issue and not just an accident or misconfiguration. Does this happen every time to you? If it does, is this driven by a script and might just check too fast after install while it is still starting up? Anything else that might help to understand why you see this? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1773931 Title: Ubuntu Desktop Artful 17.10 needs reboot to validate open-vm-tools usage To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/1773931/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
