Are you trying to log in to vmware as root? You need to. Is root in the vmware group

Code:
gpasswd -a root vmware



have you tried
Code:
revdep-rebuild

I am using the ~x86 keyword and did an update this morning and now I have this same problem.

I am in the vmware group and you don't have to be root for it to work.

I performed a revdep-rebuild even though I knew it wouldn't make a difference. The libraries it is complaining about are in the vmware-server-console directory.

I have the same problem [or very similar] I get the following output..

Code:
stuart@gen2stu ~ $ vmware

I am work from home on Thursdays and not had a problem with vmware-server till this week, I dont recall doing anything unusual in the week preceeding. Another side issue may be the use of emerge --depclean which I used the other day, it seemed to delete my kernel sources and caused other issues [there is an argument and bug formed elsewhere] but I am wondering if this problem may be related?

My gcc version is 4.2.3 btw

The initial solution is in this thread. I should search better

Dunno what the "proper" fix for this is, but here's a work around:
# cd /opt/vmware/server/console/lib/lib/libgcc_s.so.1
# cp libgcc_s.so.1 libgcc_s.so.1.bak
# cp /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.2.3/libgcc_s.so.1 .

I had this problem with a number of packages after upgrades. I double checked the binutils/gcc configs, reset them, ran env-update && source /etc/profile, checked all was right, rebooted to be sure that the environment would be correct forevermore.
