VMware Tools on Ubuntu 8.04 compile

If you try to compile the VMware tools in the latest version on Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, we get this error message:

Your compiler "/ usr / bin / gcc" version "gcc version 4.2.4 (Ubuntu 4.2.4-1ubuntu4 ) "is not supported by this version of VMware Tools.

First make sure that all are necessary to compile packages available:

apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-generic

and then compile:

LANG = C vmware-config-tools.pl
