I'm trying to uninstall VMware-Workstation 7.x from Slackware64-current to install VMware-Workstation 8. When I run the bundle installer, it tries to uninstall version 7 before attempting to install version 8. But uninstallation process dies out. Since I've don't have version 7 installer at hand, I've attempted using the provided uninstall script with the following syntax as root:
vmware-installer --console --uninstall-component=vmware-workstation
It goes up 34% and closes. Then I try
vmware-installer --list-components
And v.7 is still there!
Ideas are welcome!
did your VMware display on pkgtool list view? #pkgtool
or you could try this link as a reference.
