Just an idea: Create a wiki on this repo to share knowledge on resolutions to common problems.
One example that would be what I discovered when trying out your fantastic script on Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS:
In the file /lib/systemd/system/open-vm-tools.service add the following line in the [Unit] section:
/lib/systemd/system/open-vm-tools.service
[Unit]
After=systemd-remount-fs.service systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service dbus.service
Also, in the file /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/tmp.conf comment the following line:
/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/tmp.conf
D /tmp 1777 root root -
This prevents some race conditions and errors during customization of the Ubuntu guest OS.
Tested with Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS and vSphere 6.7
