I found myself unable to use the VMWare Workstation 12 trial on `Debian` Stretch as well as on `Ubuntu 15.10`. It installs just fine, but when I attempt to start it, it simply does nothing, no error or anything else.
I came across this thread: https://communities.vmware.com/message/2550227
so I tried to `export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/vmware/lib/libglibmm-2.4.so.1/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH`, which allowed me to start the GUI, but it states that a required `gcc` version is not installed (which is) and won't let me proceed.
Has anyone else experienced this?
How do I get VMWare Workstation 12 running on my linuxb?
