[gentoo-user] vmplayer broke again

[David Harel]

Hi all,

vmplayer broke again. I guess my last update had to do with gtk but 
still when running vmplayer  I get:
process 5474: Attempt to remove filter function 0xb58653a0 user data 
0x8678f18,but no such filter has been added
  D-Bus not built with -rdynamic so unable to print a backtrace.

Already tried to reinstall vmware-player (v 1.0.6.80404) after going to 
/opt/vmware/player/bin/vmware-uninstall.pl and also 
/opt/vmware/player/bin/vmware-config.pl.

Any idea?

Have you had a kernel upgrade recently and if so, did you update the 
vmware modules before rebooting and using vmware again?

Although I upgraded my kernel recently, defenetly I had vmplayer working 
after reinstall of vmplayer. Only after further upgrades of other 
packages I had the problem. List of upgraded modules:

Once upon a time long long ago, I needed this in package.use:

> --# This is required for vmware-player
dev-cpp/gtkmm accessibility

I haven't used vmware-player for ages, so it's pure luck that the entry 
is still there on my machine. I don't recall exact details, but I think 
not having that entry caused major gtk issues.
