I'll assume this is fixed.

I'll assume you found a workaround (since I wasn't able to reproduce your issue), speak up if you're still having problems.

The new release has better handling of libproc and scrnsaver.h. You didn't come back on the kernel issue so I'll assume one of the suggested workarounds worked.

Hi Dan,
Despite the name of the packages (and my love for the person who created that confusion), those RPMs are not based on open-vm-tools. In any case, I filed a bug in our internal tracker for this issue, so it won't be forgotten. :-)

Man, slow down.
About saver.h: open-vm-tools code does not include saver.h.
$ grep -r saver.h .
./lib/unity/unityX11.h:#include
So it seems that one of the headers we do include ends up including saver.h. And what that tells me is that your distro's packages are broken: they're installing a dev package that needs saver.h, but it's missing a dependency...

. procps: I'll take a look.
. do you mean X11/extensions/scrnsaver.h? There are no references to "saver.h" in the sources.
. what kernel are you compiling against and where are the headers? On my Ubuntu box I see the "Using 2.6.x kernel build system." instead of the one you see ("Using standalone build system."), so something seems odd about your environment.

I just tried the latest release on a Fedora 8 VM and it seems to work fine. This is the output of the step that seems to fail for you:
libtool: install: (cd /home/vmware/ovt/open-vm-tools-2009.10.15-201664/tests/testDebug; /bin/sh /home/vmware/ovt/open-vm-tools-2009.10.15-201664/libtool --tag CC --mode=relink gcc -g -O2 -Wall -Werror -Wno-pointer-sign -Wno-unused-value -fno-strict-aliasing...
