Upgrades on open-vm-desktop can trigger errors like the following: /var/lib/dpkg/info/open-vm-tools-desktop.postinst: 5: /var/lib/dpkg/info/open-vm-tools-desktop.postinst: lsmod: not found /var/lib/dpkg/info/open-vm-tools-desktop.postinst: 6: /var/lib/dpkg/info/open-vm-tools-desktop.postinst: modprobe: not found The reason is that kmod isn't a dependency of open-vm-tools-desktop and could be missing e.g. if you installed it in a system container. Once might discuss how useful open-vm-tools-desktop is in that environment but a n issue to fix none the less. Signed-off-by: Christian Ehrhardt
