Debian: Setup is unable to find the “killall” program error when installing VMware tools

Setup is unable to find the “killall” program on your machine. Please make sure
it is installed. Do you want to specify the location of this program by hand?

Hit ctrl-c to break the process, then install “psmisc” package:
aptitude install psmisc

Now try again.
