VMware tools 9.2.0 not installing in Debian 6.0.5

$

I am making a fresh installation of Debian 6.0.5 64-bit under Windows 7 based VMware player. That done, I'm trying to install VMware tools 9.2.0 in it:

apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)

apt-get install make

./vmware-install.pl

 

Gcc is found fine, but then I get this error:

The path "" is not a valid path to the 2.6.32-5-amd64 kernel headers.

 

Trying the older version 8.8.4 finds the headers just fine (and installs) in the very same setup. Using the path

/lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/build/include

in the 9.2.0 installation is not accepted and the installation script still complains that the path is not valid.

 

Please assist.
