** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ 
+  * Debian delta we had carried renders the udev rules of upstream 
+    dysfunctional.
+ 
+  * Drop the Debian Delta to follow upstream more closely and fix this
+ bug.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+  * Set up a VMWare guest
+  * boot into that guest
+  * The disks appear as scsi disks in the guest and should have a 
+    /sys/<DEVPATH>/device/timeout of 180 (instead of the default of 30)
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+  * There could be other systems using our Deb (people backporting prior to 
+    Bionic) where the older style is needed and there in turn the timeout 
+    would no more be set correctly. But our concern is the actual target 
+    release of a package and for that we have to change it to get it right.
+ 
+ [Other Info]
+  
+  * n/a

  Description:
  After the update of open-vm-tools and a reboot today the timeout for device 
sda any VM with open-vm-tools is set to a default timeout at 30.
  
  The rule is made executable also.
  
- /lib/udev/rules.d$ ls -la  99*.rules 
+ /lib/udev/rules.d$ ls -la  99*.rules
  -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4363 Jul 20 19:13 99-systemd.rules
  -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  368 Aug  1 08:16 99-vmware-scsi-udev.rules
  
- $ cat /sys/block/sda/device/timeout 
+ $ cat /sys/block/sda/device/timeout
  30
  
  Device timeout should be reported as 180.
  
  Can be reproduced on other 18.04.1 after the package update.
