Hello, My vmware-player package on Ubuntu 7.10 has a similar problem. Synaptic and apt-get both suggest to upgrade from 1:2.0.2-1~ppa5 to 1:2.0.2-1~ppa5 .
I had the same problem with an older version of vmware-player (a version ending with ppa3, don't know the exact number). Synaptic and apt-get both already "upgraded" the package to the same version and they still keep on asking to upgrade to the same version. Notice that vmware-player could not be authenticated. (I installed it from a source at launchpad.) I attached my sources.list and my terminal told me the following: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/peter# apt-get dist-upgrade --simulate Reading package lists...
