xxx@octacore:~$ vmware
/usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware: error while loading shared libraries: libxcb-xlib.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
/usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware: /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libpng12.so.0/libpng12.so.0: no version information available (required by /usr/lib32/libcairo.so.2)
/usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware: error while loading shared libraries: libxcb-xlib.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Anyways my question is has anyone had problems with feisty and libxcb-xlib... i have reinstalled the package twice and it still is not working.

trying
to copy the file to /usr/lib/bin/vmware/ causes vmware to give no output, simlinks do the same.

Any ideas?

Thanks

It seems the last update for Feisty broke something surrounding libxcb-xlib.so.0.

Unless someone finds a workaround I guess we will have to wait till the problem gets fixed.
