If anyone is interested, I made a backported copy of these packages
available on my PPA.  You can find the appropriate apt/source.list
entries here:  https://launchpad.net/~lowell-alleman/+archive

I don't think it's possible to distribute kernel modules with PPA, I could be wrong.... So after installing open-vm-source, you'll have to run the following to build/install the kernel level modules:
    module-assistant prepare open-vm
    module-assistant auto-install open-vm
