Changelog for open-vm-tools-desktop-12.2.0-305.2.i586.rpm :

* Tue Mar 28 2023 Kirk Allan - Update to 12.2.0 (build 21223074) (boo#1209128) - There are no new features in the open-vm-tools 12.2.0 release. This is primarily a maintenance release that addresses a few critical problems, including: - Linux quiesced snapshots have been updated to avoid intermittent hangs of the vmtoolsd process. - Updated the guestOps to handle some edge cases when File_GetSize() fails or returns -1. - A number of Coverity reported issues have been addressed. - Detect the proto files for the containerd grpc client in alternate locations. Pull request #626 - FreeBSD: Support newer releases and code clean-up for earlier versions. Pull request #584 - Please refer to the release notes at https://github.com/vmware/open-vm-tools/blob/stable-12.2.0/ReleaseNotes.md - The granular changes that have gone into the 12.2.0 release are in the ChangeLog at https://github.com/vmware/open-vm-tools/blob/stable-12.2.0/ open-vm-tools/ChangeLog- Update detect-suse-location.patch to remove upstream accepted portion of the patch (jsc-PED-1344).
* Wed Dec 28 2022 Stefan Schubert - Migration of PAM settings to /usr/lib/pam.d.
* Wed Dec 14 2022 Kirk Allan - Don\'t list libgrpc++, libgrpc, and libprotobuf in the containerinfo Requires section. The dependencies will be added automatically.
* Tue Dec 13 2022 Kirk Allan - Don\'t use new LDFLAGS, -labsl_synchronization -lgpr, when building for SLE.
* Mon Dec 12 2022 Caleb Crane - Add containerInfo plugin (jsc-PED-1344) - Add dependencies on grpc, protobuf, and containerd for container introspection- Added patches (jsc-PED-1344) + detect-suse-location.patch
* Thu Dec 08 2022 Caleb Crane - Add _service to handle open-vm-tools sources- Update to 12.1.5 (build 20735119) (boo#1205962) - A number of Coverity reported issues have been addressed. - The deployPkg plugin may prematurely reboot the guest VM before cloud-init has completed user data setup. If both the Perl based Linux customization script and cloud-init run when the guest VM boots, the deployPkg plugin may reboot the guest before cloud-init has finished. The deployPkg plugin has been updated to wait for a running cloud-init process to finish before the guest VM reboot is initiated. This issue is fixed in this release. - A SIGSEGV may be encountered when a non-quiesing snapshot times out. This issue is fixed in this release. - Unwanted vmtoolsd service error message if not on a VMware hypervisor. When open-vm-tools comes preinstalled in a base Linux release, the vmtoolsd services are started automatically at system start and desktop login. If running on physical hardware or in a non-VMware hypervisor, the services will emit an error message to the Systemd\'s logging service before stopping. This issue is fixed in this release.

The network script has been updated to: use vmware-toolbox-cmd to query any network logging configuration from the tools.conf file. Use vmtoolsd --cmd \"log ...\" to log a message to the vmx logfile when the logging handler is configured to \"vmx\" or when the logfile is full or is not writeable. - The hgfsmounter (mount.vmhgfs) command has been removed from open-vm-tools. The hgfsmounter (mount.vmhgfs) command is no longer used in Linux open-vm-tools. It has been replaced by hgfs-fuse. Therefore, removing all references to the hgfsmounter in Linux builds. + Resolved issues: - Customization: Retry the Linux reboot if telinit is a soft link to systemctl. - Open-vm-tools commands would hang if configured with \"--enable-valgrind\". + Spec file updates for: - rpmlint errors - arg_xmlsec1 --enable-xmlsec1 for better xmlsec1/libxml2 handling.

* Wed Dec 02 2020 Guillaume GARDET - Enable build on aarch64
* Mon Nov 09 2020 Dominique Leuenberger - Add explicit pkgconfig(gdk-pixbuf-xlib-2.0) BuildRequires: used to be pulled in (as part of gdk-pixbuf) by GTK3 in the past. But as configure explicitly looks for it, it is our own duty to ensure its presence.

Once they have removed the netstat dependency we will need to go through the ECO process to get the plugin added.
