Considering that it's a binary package, it's not surprising it might fail with stricter. Adding stricter to RESTRICT is the lame way of getting it to merge. Exact errors as follow: QA Notice: the following files are setXid, dyn linked, and using lazy bindings This combination is generally discouraged. Try re-emerging the package: LDFLAGS='-Wl,-z,now' emerge vmware-workstation LAZY opt/vmware/workstation/bin/vmware-ping LAZY opt/vmware/workstation/lib/bin/vmware-vmx QA Notice: the following files contain runtime text relocations Text relocations force the dynamic linker to perform extra work at startup, waste system resources, and may pose a security risk. On some architectures, the code may not even function properly, if at all.

I'm sure all of the VMware stuff fails w/ stricter... I'll look into it.
So the setuid lazy bindings keeps it from merging, also? I updated the ebuilds in CVS. Can you see if these work? If not, I'll have to use RESTRICT="stricter" which I would prefer not have to do.

This is now FIXED, though I really dislike it.
