The library libvmware-netcfg.so/ is installed to the wrong location it is installed to /opt/vmware/lib/vmware, it should be installed to /opt/vmware/lib/vmware/lib/

This breaks the visual network editor tool.

Moving the directory to the correct location fixes the problem.

If you need more info please let me know.

Maybe there should be done with adding

dosym "${VM_INSTALL_DIR}"/lib/vmware/lib/libvmware-netcfg.so
