this is by design. one should be able to install both vmware
workstation and the vmware server console without conflict.
you need to download the "VMware Server Linux client package" from
vmware.com and generate the vmware-server-console package. that version
differs slightly from the integrated console vmware ships in the server
package in that the binary is called /usr/bin/vmware-server-console.
splitting vmware-server-console from vmware-server also means you save
roughly 30 MB + additional dependencies that aren't needed on headless
machines running vmware server.
$ cat /usr/bin/make-vmpkg

it's not necessary to imitate every nuance of vmware's install scripts.
