Build error "Failed to build vmnet. Failed to execute the build
command."
when trying to compile vmnet.Not one other shred of data in the logs telling me WHY it failed to build. I have rolled back to the last 514 kernel to use vmware but I don't want to recompile vmware because of the liability of not being able
to
get it running again if the compilation problem is caused by one of the other updates. Anyone else found vmware problems after CR update??
The answer is to recompile the source tarball with a patch which appeared at: https://communities.vmware.com/message/2686431?tstart=0#2686431

Tried it and it works swimmingly. Whew!
