Description Chris White 2016-02-15 23:18:29 UTC 
Up until this version the ebuild installed a .desktop file into xdg autostart which executes `vmware-user-suid-wrapper` as below:

        insinto /etc/xdg/autostart
        doins "${FILESDIR}/open-vm-tools.desktop"

This is no longer in the 10.0.0 ebuild and I'd like to either know why ( ChangeLog just says package bump and nothing really else) or have it put back in.

Probably a mistake on my part. I restored the code.

It looks like there are a few new releases available, so I will skip the revbump and do a version bump soon.
