Created attachment 358380 [details] updated ebuild for open-vm-tools I just wanted to submit a modified open-vm-tools ebuild. I prefer to use a monolithic kernel build and the open-vm-tools has always been required to use modules when it can be built without them. So I've changed the open-vm-tools ebuild to optionally be built with modules and also with pam since that's also an optional item. I've attached the fixed ebuild for the maintainer to review if they would like to update the ebuild for future version. Thanks, David
