vmware-tools3VMware tools for guest OS (for VMware 3.x, FreeBSD version)
3.2.1.2237_2emulatorsΣ=8 3.2.1.2237_2Version of this port present on the latest quarterly branch.
DEPRECATED: Depends of misc/compat3x, that is deprecated and set to be removed This port expired on: 2010-11-08 IGNORE: is only for i386, while you are running amd64 RESTRICTED: "Not sure if we can redistribute this." IS INTERACTIVE: yes
VMware tools support FreeBSD _guest_ OS running on VMware Workstation.
Beware, this port is _not_ for FreeBSD _host_ OS.
VMware tools for FreeBSD consist of vmware-toolbox which supports
seamless operation between the Host and the Guest OS, dual-boot
configulation files, and special XFree86 3.x server for Guest OS.
However, we cannot install dual-boot configuration since it requires
to modify /etc files.
This ports will install vmware-toolbox to your computer. You may use 'vmware'
driver for X server. Vmware-guestd is installed as a separate port,
ports/emulators/vmware-guestd3, but this port install guestd automatically.

Mark ports that depends of misc/compat3x as DEPRECATED and set EXPIRATION_DATE
to 2010-11-08 since compat3x is DEPRECATED, expired and has known
vulnerabilities
- Add the X_WINDOW_SYSTEM={xorg,xfree86-4,xfree86-3} variable to bsd.port.mk,
and make XFREE86_VERSION map to it. XFREE86_VERSION is now deprecated.
- Make xorg the default X_WINDOW_SYSTEM on -current.
- Add several new X_*_PORT variables which point to various pieces of X11 based
on the setting of X_WINDOW_SYSTEM, and make ports use them.
- Add information to CHANGES about how to handle the transition.

Fixup for package cluster building.
- Mark NO_PACKAGE since these ports require VMware itself.
(and avoid using .ifdef(PACKAGE_BUILDING) also)
- Forget to mark IS_INTERACTIVE if !BATCH (vmware-guest4).
I've too much asked that where to get files for install. Apparantly,
the word 'none' is an obscure comment.
No content change, no procedure change, so no bump.
Cosmetic fixes for old VMware guest tools to sync with the latest one.
* Update pkg-descr to point a new ports location.
* Update RUN_DEPENDS to point a new ports location.
* Sync COMMENT message to all versions.
* Use INSTALL_PROGRAM instead of CP since it installs a program.
* Wrap interactive-related script with .if !defined(BATCH) appropriately.
* Unhide UMOUNT command and users will know what's happened.
Correct ports that were abusing the FORBIDDEN variable and replace with
either IGNORE or BROKEN.
Since there seems to be some confusion, for the record:
BROKEN is reserved for ports that don't work. This will prevent
users from installing the port, but please note that
ports marked as BROKEN will still be built by bento
IGNORE is reserved for ports that should not be built for one
reason or another (including bento). Users and bento
will not build ports marked as IGNORE.
FORBIDDEN is reserved for security breakages only!!! Only mark a
port as FORBIDDEN if there is a security issue with the
port at the time.
