fileLogger.c:306:4: error: 'g_static_mutex_get_mutex_impl' is deprecated (declared at /usr/include/glib-2.0/glib/deprecated/gthread.h:149): Use 'GMutex' instead [-Werror=deprecated-declarations]

Message:
this is a duplicate:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=3459133&group_id=204462&atid=989708

use CFLAGS=-Wno-deprecated-declarations with ./configure and it will
compile fine.

It was marked as WONTFIX, because open-vm-tools has to be backwards
compatible with <=glib-2.31
