VMWARE - Why can't I find the vmware-tools ISO for linux guest?

They are certainly there. Just have a look at this page: http://packages.vmware.com/tools/esx/latest/index.html
That is a subdirectory of the site linked to by VMWare and certainly does not just have Windows.

In their website vmware claims that if we are "Unable to locate the ISO image for the VMware Tools installation" then we can just download it. I followed the link indicated and I can find ISO's for the case where the guest is Windows. But what I need is an ISO for the case when the guest is linux (Ubuntu). Where are the ISOs?

Cray over 8 yearsThat site does not include an .iso file for easy installation. For ubuntu it has a bunch of .debs, and it's unclear what they want to do with them (install all? Some? Import as apt-source?). There seems to be no .iso on that site whatsoever...
