[oe] [meta-oe][PATCH 00/14] new recipe: open-vm-tools recipe

[Martin Kelly]

Hi all,

This patch series adds a new recipe for Open VM Tools to meta-oe. This 
recipe is invaluable for using Openembedded with VMWare, as without the 
tools, performance is very slow.

More information about Open VM Tools can be found here:

https://github.com/vmware/open-vm-tools

Please note that, as mentioned in the first commit, this recipe is 
modified from the recipe originally found in the Open-Switch repository. 
The first patch is directly from that repository, and the following 
patches are modifications to it.

Original recipe:
https://github.com/open-switch/ops-build
yocto/openswitch/meta-foss-openswitch/recipes-extended/open-vm-tools/open-vm-tools_10.0.5.bb
Commit 9008de2d8e100f3f868c66765742bca9fa98f3f9

Although the original recipe packaging was Apache-licensed, I received 
permission from the author (Diego Dompe) to relicense it under the MIT 
license for inclusion in meta-openembedded:
