Hello, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
after upgrading the kernel on a Gentoo machine which is a VMWare guest, |
| 4 |
I also upgraded vmware-tools (this means, emerge the package, mount the |
| 5 |
.iso with -o loop, and run ./INSTALL). |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
Basically, no problem as usual, but now revdep-rebuild complains about |
| 8 |
some files which were installed by vmware-tools: |

Seems that most of the files are intended for some graphical desktops (which |
| 44 |
are not needed here but are installed by vmware-tools anyway). |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
Can I somehow get rid of those messages (apart from just deleting those unneeded |
| 47 |
libraries which may break other things)? I already tried some configuration with |
| 48 |
LD_LIBRARY_MASK, but to no avail. |

Thanks, |
