Not sure if my problem is the same as the others. In my case vmware- player does not install using synaptic package manager on either of my two computers.
Error notice given at the end: " E: vmware-player: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 " Attached is the output from the console. ** Attachment added: "error message from console" http://librarian.launchpad.net/4861769/err_mess_vmware.txt -- install/uninstall doesn't complete because of broken init-script https://launchpad.net/bugs/57957 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
