I see new bits in esx
, they just are not linked to latest
. I am not sure what the release
directory is for. If they are reorganizing, its going to be painful trying to figure out the logic to get the right URL.

It appears that since version 10 of vmware tools, new releases of vmware tools are no longer linked to versions of ESX.
https://blogs.vmware.com/vsphere/2015/09/vmware-tools-10-0-0-released.html
At the same time, the release directory only contains version 10.x releases.
It'd be nice if they'd updated some docs in https://packages.vmware.com/tools/docs/manuals/index.html or provided a clear explanation in an updated https://packages.vmware.com/tools/versions

Good find. That explains things.
I guess for now we could have tools_version => latest
point to the new release
directory location and any other value point to the esx
location. The trouble appears when people start wanting the 10.0.5 version instead of the 6.0u1 version .
