Description

I run into the same problem with vmware-workstation. I could solve the problem by emerge -C vmware-workstation && emerge vmware-workstation Probably the same work around for vmware-player... Yes, uninstalling removed the preserved files and emerge again does not have the issue. The Issue is solved for me. To the gentoo dev's, it is possible to hide the preserved files for the build process during re-emerge?

Well, does it still run then? because re-emerging vmware-workstation won't magically change its prebuilt binaries... :) In particular, what happens e.g. if you want to enter a license number? ("libvmware-enter-serial.so") It works fine. Seems vmware uses the provided /opt/vmware/lib/vmware/lib/libgcr.so.0/libgcr.so.0 (In reply to Alexander Weber from comment #4) > It works fine. > > Seems vmware uses the provided > /opt/vmware/lib/vmware/lib/libgcr.so.0/libgcr.so.0 Hmm yeah. This looks more like a quirk in @preserved-rebuild handling. VMware provides its own library, but portage tries to preserve the global one. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 215242 *** In bug #265372 comment #10, it was decided that a similar bug for googleearth was not a duplicate of bug #215242, since the issue can be addressed at the package level. More precisely, patchelf can be used to set the rpath of the involved ELF files such that ldd and portage know that these link against their own libs in preference to system libs. Maybe the same approach would work here, too.

Thank you for the reminder. *** Bug 485948 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 480674 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 503182 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 522324 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 519992 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 515586 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 534252 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Just as a general heads up, this bug will resolve itself automatically once the handling of bug 508070 is complete... Work in progress. Current [Overlay] includes:
vmware-player-7.1.4.3848939.ebuild ! not supported any more !
and vmware-player-12.5.7.5813279.ebuild
but no
vmware-player-6.*.*.*******.ebuild ! not supported any more !
any more.
To me, this Bug looks OBSOLETE.
