Thanks for the explantion about the 'linux-hwe-generic' package. It being outdated explains why I was confused about it. ;-)
Just to make sure... 
Is it correct that 'linux-hwe-generic' should then always depend on the latest supported 'linux-generic-lts-*' package?
Also will 'open-vm-dkms-hwe' then at least suggest 'linux-hwe-generic'?

Just for confirmation... The current 'open-vm-dkms' in Precise would not change because of this change. 
This means people will need to manually install 'open-vm-dkms-hwe' and a newer kernel. Correct?
