The ebuild for VMware-workstation-4.5.2-8848 fails because the digest for vwmare-any-any-update73.tar.gz doesn't exist. Specifically: sanchez files # cat digest-vmware-workstation-4.5.2.8848 MD5 cd52130a4ad753ac9d017cc031038a3c VMware-workstation-4.5.2-8848.tar.gz 43948624 MD5 92b2642f9f746d69086be747e3d40707 vmware-any-any-update72.tar.gz 246749 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Just as an addendum; adding the correct md5sum, filesize and name to the digest file allowed the build to install.

As a temporary work around you can edit /usr/portage/app-emulation/vmware-workstation/files/digest-vmware-workstation-4.5.2.8848 and replace the line MD5 92b2642f9f746d69086be747e3d40707 vmware-any-any-update72.tar.gz 246749 with the line MD5 892f43dd6514b09a14b011f9d1ebb5e7 vmware-any-any-update73.tar.gz 246942 and emerge. Note that doing this has implicit security concerns as you're not really verifying the validity of the tarball.
riz: Perhaps a little patience should be in order. I only had the bug assigned to me yesterday, and I have a day job. I am a volunteer and am not paid to work on Gentoo. I do it because I enjoy it. That said, I'm not watching Bugzilla or my email 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Showing a little bit of reservation and patience won't kill you, so next time, think before you post. With that being said, I fixed this in CVS. I apologise for forgetting to commit the new digest files when I updated the ebuild, it was an oversight on my part, and I'll try not to do it again.
