open-vm-tools missing in nightly-builds starting from version 1.5-rolling-202404220020
Closed, ResolvedPublicBUG

Description

Hello!

After upgrade I noticed that open vm tools are not running anymore...
Started to look into the problem and found that the package is not installed in the latest nightly build iso. Tried different nightly build ISOs and found this:
Package open-vm-tools is missing in nightly builds ISOs starting from version 1.5-rolling-202404220020.
The last nightly build version with open-vm-tools package is 1.5-rolling-202404200018.

Is this done intentionally or by mistake?
