Description Jan Hrabe 2013-12-10 17:01:23 UTC
After every system update, the output suggests to run "emerge @preserved-rebuild".  This command keeps rebuilding the wmware-player but to no effect -- the message appears again next time:

 * GNU info directory index is up-to-date.

Use emerge @preserved-rebuild to rebuild packages using these libraries

it's a portage bug... the only thing that helps right now is unmerge and re-emerge vmware-player
