Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: vmware-player
After installing the package (1.0.2-2 on feisty), starting vmplayer
fails with:
/usr/lib/vmware-player/bin/vmplayer: /usr/lib/vmware-
player/lib/libpng12.so.0/libpng12.so.0: no version information available
(required by /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2)
I saw mentioned on the net that 'VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_GTK=force vmplayer'
could be used to overcome this problem, but that fails, with:
ERROR: ld.so: object
'/usr/lib/vmware-player/lib/libgnomecanvasmm-2.6.so.1/libgnomecanvasmm-2.6.so.1'
from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.
[...]
Unable to load image-loading module:
/build/mts/release/bora-29634/bora/build/release/player/vmui/../libdir/libconf/lib/gtk-2.0/2.4.0/loaders/libpixbufloader-png.so:

cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
this last error message seems to show that a custom absolute path stays
from the build environment, which will surely not work on user's
machines.
