Hi release team,

I've uploaded open-vm-tools 2:8.8.0+2012.05.21-724730-1+nmu2+deb7u1
which fixes #779081. The bug was introduced with the new kernel revision
in the last point release - d_alias was moved into the d_u struct.
I've added a patch which checks for the loction of d_alias and uses the
appropriate one.

Please pick this fix for the next point release as for those who
(still) need the dkms modules (vmwar eplayer users or old esx
installations) won't be able to upgrade to the recent kernel otherwise.

Thanks,

Bernd
