Package: vmware-package
Version: 0.14~dmitrmax.1
Severity: wishlist

It would be very useful to have a possibility to packetize the VMWare Tools.
May be it should be even done when doing make-vmpkg on the VMWare Workstation.
You just need to rip the linux.iso from vmware-blobs package and create the
vmware-tools and vmware-tools-kernel-source packages.
