Description Cédric Krier gentoo-dev 2004-12-21 03:00:47 UTC 
When I run vmware-config.pl, it doesn't compile the modules because it can run getversion.pl in /tmp mounted with noexec option

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge vmware
2. mount /tmp with noexec option
3. run vmware-config.pl

Actual Results:  
The modules aren't compiled

Expected Results:  
In the makefile that is runned to compile the module, it must call perl to run
the script

This is an upstream bug that needs to be addressed by VMWare.
