I was planning on merging in some of the code in https://github.com/scottjab/puppet-vmwaretools/ . Feel free to send a PR with SuSE support.

Alright, I will take a fork of that code (as it is on 4.1.0 base) and merge in your current master. I'll get the code out to our servers for testing and report back then.

Hi,
I was hoping to join in this effort, as I have a few SLES boxes I'm trying to shoehorn into puppet/foreman. And since vmwaretools is applied in one of the top level HostGroups, I'm struggling to get the SLES boxes in there because at the moment it is a $supported platform, so its not skipped, even though support is non-functional.
I was wondering if it wouldn't be a better choice to craft a parameter that represents the repo package url from http://packages.vmware.com/tools/esx/latest/repos/index.html. Then the module could install the package from a URL. This might apply well for all operatingsystems vmware supports.
I'm not completely certain how to craft that URL, but it would seem that once the repo-package is installed, any updates to the repo could be applied by ensuring that package is the "latest".

Hi,
I just pushed a suse_support branch into my fork yesterday:
https://github.com/ashleygould/puppet-vmwaretools/tree/suse_support
It uses zypprepo type (dependancy on darin/zypprepo) on sles systems and corrects the $baseurl_url creation to accomodate how sles repos are named at http://packages.vmware.com/tools/esx/latest/index.html. I am doing more testing on my site before making a pull request. also, I should knuckle down and learn puppet-rspec properly.
I am not entirely happy with how I correct $baseurl_url. It could be much cleaner, but would involve a lot more
refactering of existing params.pp. Any suggestion are welcome.

@ashleygould After a quick glance at your code, I see that it would need some rspec test modifications to pass unit tests, but otherwise looks OK. I will look more closely at the $baseurl_url munging for any suggestions.
