Today I noticed that vmware-server-console fails: /usr/lib/vmware-server-console/bin/vmware-server-console: /usr/lib/vmware-server-console/lib/libpng12.so.0/libpng12.so.0: no version information available (required by /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2) After some searching I found out about the VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_GTK environment variable. However, no matter what I set it to, it doesn't work. If it's unset I get the error above, if I set it to any value (force, no, yes) then vmware-server-console fails silently. The same silent failure occurs if I LD_PRELOAD libpng or if I copy the library from /usr/lib to /usr/lib/vmware-server-console/lib/libpng12.so.0. Anyone else with this problem? Anyone with a solution? /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus@therning.org Jabber: magnus.therning@gmail.com http://therning.org/magnus Software is not manufactured, it is something you write and publish.
