[Bug 801997] Re: vmtoolsd does not start in lucid

[Serge Hallyn]

Thanks for reporting this bug.

Did you build a custom vm-tools alongside the package?  The error

root at ubuntu:/etc/vmware-tools# vmtoolsd
vmtoolsd: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/vmware-tools/lib/libvmtoolsd.so/libvmtoolsd.so: undefined symbol: VMTools_EnableLogging

Doesn't seem to make sense, as the package installs its libraries under
/usr/lib/open-vm-tools/.

Could you do:

   which vmtoolsd
   dpkg -S `which vmtoolsd`
   sha1sum `which vmtoolsd`
   file `which vmtoolsd`

So we can try to see what's going on?
