[Vmware-package-maintainers] Bug#462620: vmware-package: issues with --product

[Marc Haber]

Package: vmware-package
Version: 0.20
Severity: normal

Hi,

vmware-any-any 115 does not build with the recently released kernel
2.6.24. There is a vmware-any-any 115a available though, on
http://rtr.ca/vmware-2.6.24/.

make-vmpkg refuses to debianize this:

$ make-vmpkg vmware-any-any-update115a.tar.gz
 ===> debianizing /home/mh/vmware-any-any/vmware-any-any-update115a.tar.gz
unable to determine product type, try using -p
$ make-vmpkg -p any-any vmware-any-any-update115a.tar.gz
cannot specify -p or -u and multiple files
$ make-vmpkg --product=any-any vmware-any-any-update115a.tar.gz
cannot specify -p or -u and multiple files
$    

Is there something I am doing wrong?

Greetings
Marc
