[Bug 1267254] [NEW] Please do not package devel snapshots

[Oliver Kurth]

Public bug reported:

Hello,

we (VMware) noticed that the latest versions of open-vm-tools in saucy
and trusty are built from the devel snapshots.

Of course we are happy that Ubuntu ships packages for open-vm-tools and
support this. However, we do not recommend shipping devel snapshots.

Please build packages from the stable branch instead (currently this is
open-vm-tools-9.4.0-1280544.tar.gz). Code from the stable branches has
been thoroughly tested by VMware, code from the devel snapshots has not
and may contain many hidden bugs.

Thanks,
Oliver
