Description Dustin C. Hatch 2013-05-23 19:36:16 UTC 
A new version of open-vm-tools was released in April that solves a number of issues (notably #460224, compatibility with kernels >=3.8). Build process is the same as the previous version (2012.12.26.958366) and renaming the ebuilds is enough to get a working installation of both the userspace utilities and kernel modules.

Reproducible: Always

Comment 4 Anton Bolshakov 2013-05-31 23:43:45 UTC 
That bug should be fixed together with the bug #461872. app-emulation/open-vm-tools-kmod fails in the same way on the hardened profile
Comment 5 Paweł Hajdan, Jr. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-06-22 23:27:57 UTC 
Fixed, thanks!
