Description

This pull request updates the minimum required versions for VMware Fusion and VMware Workstation in the builder/vmware/common/driver.go file.

  • Increased the minimum supported version for VMware Fusion from 13.5.0 to 13.6.0 (fusionMinVersion).
  • Increased the minimum supported version for VMware Workstation from 17.5.0 to 17.6.0 (workstationMinVersion).

These changes ensure compatibility with the more current releases of both desktop hypervisor products.

The existing compareVersionObjects function will compare the version required and the version returned to ensure that the found version meets or exceeds the required version. If not, an error will be returned:

	if versionFound.LessThan(versionRequired) {
		return fmt.Errorf("[ERROR] Requires %s %s or later; %s installed", product, versionRequired.String(), versionFound.String())
	}

For example:

[ERROR] Requires VMware Fusion 13.6.0 or later; 13.5.1 installed
[ERROR] Requires VMware Workstation 17.6.0 or later; 17.4.0 installed
