please rebase open-vm-tools to version 10.1.5

[John Savanyo]

Can you please rebase open-vm-tools to the new 10.1.5 version in the next Ubuntu release? It is available at: https://github.com/vmware/open-vm-tools/tree/stable-10.1.5

The release notes are available here: https://github.com/vmware/open-vm-tools/blob/stable-10.1.5/ReleaseNotes.md

This is already available in Debian: https://packages.debian.org/sid/open-vm-tools

Thanks,
John

It would be better to rebase the newer open-vm-tools to version 10.1.5.
So I change the title and bug description section and ask to rebase 10.1.5 instead of 10.1.0

thanks

After install the embedded OVT 10.1.5 and reboot for Ubuntu-17.04-beta2, The VGauth service is not running.
I can find the bootup service file /lib/systemd/system/vgauth.service but can not find the executive file VGAuthService in GuestOS.

The content of file vgauth.service:
