      I have an interesting problem.

      I use the embedded image.

      I tried to install the Open-VM-Tools package. Actually I tried to install OpenVPN and this got installed a while back.
      It did not install.

      Yet it show in the installed packages tab. So I tried to un-install it:

      Removing package…
      Loading package configuration open-vm-tools.xml...
      Loading package instructions...

      Did nothing

      Tried to reinstall it:

      Loading package instructions... Auxiliary files... done.
      Deinstall commands...

      Did nothing

      Tried to install it again:

      Downloading package configuration file... done.
      Saving updated package information... done.
      Downloading OpenVPN Client Export Utility and its dependencies... done.
      Checking for successful package installation... of p7zip-9.04 failed!

      Installation aborted.

      Can something be done to manually remove it?

      THanks

      Rasto

        +1 Me too.

        If I follow the uninstall URL : http://192.168.254.40/pkg_mgr_install.php?mode=delete&pkg=Open-VM-Tools
        Then, just below the next uninstall screen , I get this error :

        Warning: require_once(/usr/local/pkg/open-vm-tools.inc): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /etc/inc/pkg-utils.inc on line 748 Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required '/usr/local/pkg/open-vm-tools.inc' (include_path='.:/etc/inc:/usr/local/www:/usr/local/captiveportal:/usr/local/pkg') in /etc/inc/pkg-utils.inc on line 748
