Details

Description:
It appears the package was last built against icu version 52.1 but icu has since been updated to 53.1. When attempting to start the vmtoolsd service it fails with the error

/usr/bin/vmtoolsd: error while loading shared libraries: libicui18n.so.52: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

When I rebuilt the package against the latest icu 53.1 it works normally

Additional info:
* open-vm-tools 5:2013.09.16
* icu 53.1


Steps to reproduce:
Install open-vm-tools in a VMware guest
Start vmtoolsd with systemctl start vmtoolsd
View the status of the service to see it has failed
This task depends upon

I just checked open-vm-tools 5:2013.09.16-8 for both x86_64 and i686, both are linked to libicu*.so.53. You gave a version, but not a package version number, what version are you on, exactly?
