Details

Description:
The lqtest version of open-vm-tools ships a script which has to be included in the package in order to work properly.

The scipt is found in the source tarball under scripts/common. its name is vmware-xdg-detect-de

BTW, could the package install script perform the chmod 4755 /usr/bin/vmware-user-suid-wrapper (unless this violates security standards) needed to have this binary execute correctly?

Additional info:
* package version(s)
2010.11.17
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
launch vmware-user-suid-wrapper in console and see the output.
This task depends upon
