Hi sigmatech, thanks very much for taking the time to file this report.

At this point, I cannot reproduce this on any current release of Ubuntu, or 10.04. The version you were installing is not the version for 10.04, so I think you may have had some extra repositories obfuscating the proper packages.

Closing as Invalid.

Changed in open-vm-tools (Ubuntu):
status: New → Invalid
