Running `vmware` yields the following error: /opt/vmware/workstation/lib/bin/vmware: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libpangocairo-1.0.so.0: undefined symbol: pango_font_get_font_map This is also mentioned in bug #116399. Running `VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_GTK=force vmware ` does not cause the problem. The symbol 'pango_font_get_font_map' is required by /usr/lib/libpangocairo-1.0.so.0.1003.0 and defined in /usr/lib/libpango-1.0.so.0.1003.0. It is _not_ defined in /opt/vmware/workstation/lib/lib/libpango-1.0.so.0/libpango-1.0.so.0. Running `vmware` executes `/opt/vmware/workstation/lib/lib/wrapper-gtk24.sh` which sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH such that `ldd /opt/vmware/workstation/lib/bin/vmware` contains '/usr/lib/libpangocairo-1.0.so.0' and `ldd /usr/lib/libpangocairo-1.0.so.0` contains '/opt/vmware/workstation/lib/lib/libpango-1.0.so.0/libpango-1.0.so.0'. Hence, 'pango_font_get_font_map' is not found since '/opt/vmware/workstation/lib/lib/libpango-1.0.so.0/libpango-1.0.so.0' is loaded instead of '/usr/lib/libpango-1.0.so.0.1003.0'. Why does vmware not contain its own libpangocairo version?

I would say that the proper fix is to determine if we really need those libraries from VMware or if we can simply use the ones on our system (with some dependency changes, of course).
Chris, Also note that VMWare ships with 32bit stuff even if you're on a 64bit arch. So there'd be some more depends for 64bit.
Yes, I am quite aware of that. Thanks for pointing it out, though.
*** Bug 146614 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Can you test the new 5.5.2 ebuild? It is currently masked due to it requiring vmware-modules-1.0.0.15 (which pulls down the vmware server sources) but otherwise is perfectly good to be used.
5.5.2 ebuild works for me here. Why the need for the download of vmware-server? Does the workstation tarball not come with the ability to build its own modules? (I actually had >vmware-modules-1.0.0.13 masked in /etc/portage/package.mask to prevent the vmware-server d/l - there didn't seem to be anything wrong with the 1.0.0.13 modules) Still get this /opt/vmware/workstation/lib/bin/vmware: /opt/vmware/workstation/lib/lib/libpng12.so.0/libpng12.so.0: no version information available (required by /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2) At startup though. Which is easily fixed by replacing /opt/vmware/workstation/lib/lib/libpng12.so.0/libpng12.so.0 with a symlink to /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0.12.0
Update - The only slight drawback is the BSOD (running XP as the guest OS) right after boot, after upgrading vmware-tools. Now XP is stuck in a constant boot/BSOD loop, with vmware claiming that vmware-tools is out of date. I'm staring at a re-install here, am I not?
Likely. Anyway, the vmware-modules-1.0.0.13 are quite a bit older than the modules provided by VMware Server. There currently is not a version of vmware-any-any-update that supports 5.5.2/server, which is why it has to download all of server to build the modules. Yes, we could use the modules distributed with Workstation, but there's no way to properly do that determination within an ebuild other than downloading *all* of the supported products (server, player, *and* workstation) then determining later. It's a portage limitation that we currently have no way to work around. As for your XP problem, I have no clue. I don't use Windows, and it is a problem within the application itself, which makes it a VMware-supported issue. Marking this bug as FIXED since 5.5.2 resolves it.
