Package: vmware-package
Version: 0.22
Severity: normal
I built vmware-server-console thusly:
# make sure contrib is in your sources.list
aptitude install vmware-package unzip &&
cd `mktemp -d` &&
# From http://register.vmware.com/content/download.html
wget
http://download3.vmware.com/software/vmserver/VMware-server-linux-client-1.0.5-80187.zip
&&
unzip *.zip VMware-server-console-1.0.5-80187.tar.gz &&
rm *.zip &&
make-vmpkg VMware-server-console-1.0.5-80187.tar.gz &&
dpkg -i vmware-server-console/*deb
Attempting to then run vmware-server-console results in it crashing:
$ vmware-server-console
/usr/lib/vmware-server-console/bin/vmware-server-console:
/usr/lib/vmware-server-console/lib/libgcc_s.so.1/libgcc_s.so.1: version
`GCC_4.2.0' not found (required by /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6)
/usr/lib/vmware-server-console/bin/vmware-server-console:
/usr/lib/vmware-server-console/lib/libgcc_s.so.1/libgcc_s.so.1: version
`GCC_4.2.0' not found (required by /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6)
/usr/lib/vmware-server-console/bin/vmware-server-console:
/usr/lib/vmware-server-console/lib/libgcc_s.so.1/libgcc_s.so.1: version
`GCC_4.2.0' not found (required by /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6)
$
However, looking at other bug reports I found this environment
variable, which fixes things.
$ VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_GTK=force vmware-server-console
I suspect this indicates that the vmware-server-console package should
Depend or Recommend on an obsolete version of GTK and/or should
default to using the "real" GTK rather than the hokey one that VMware
ship.
