[Bug 776103] Re: package open-vm-dkms 2011.03.28-387002-0ubuntu2 fails to build against 2.6.39 kernels, due to missing linux/smp_lock.h

[Nate Muench]

And, we have a failure, because of this:
fileStandAlone.c:223:17: error: variable 'pathLen' set but not used [-Werror=unused-but-set-variable]
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

The Package (for the June version) successfully build in a Natty
environment.  The Virtual Test PPA still has the binaries for the May
version (for Oneiric and Natty).  So you may use those until we (this is
a team effort now) can get something out that actually builds
successfully with Oneiric because I will not submit something that fails
to build.

I think this is going to be held off until Alpha 3.  And because we have
something that works (as it successfully built, works with the
transitional Toolbox package), I can just create the proposal when we
got that patch, and I got a successful build on my Repo.
