unable to install open-vm-tools in UCS 4.1
Last modified: 2016-01-27 16:22:06 CET
Not possible to install the package open-vm-tools in a clean UCS 4.1. Following error occurred: Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: open-vm-tools : Depends: libxml-security-c16 but it is not installable Recommends: ethtool but it is not installable Recommends: zerofree but it is not installable Workaround: Activate unmaintained repository. Solution: The packages libxml-security-c16, ethtool and zerofree must be shipped in the maintained repository.

Only "libxml-security-c16" is a hard dependency, "ethtool" and "zerofree" are only recommended: # LANG=C apt-get -q -y -d --no-install-recommends --no-install-suggests install open-vm-tools ...
