[Vmware-package-maintainers] Bug#502098: vmware-package: VMware Workstation 6.5 does not come in tar balls

[Marius Mikucionis]

Package: vmware-package
Version: 0.22
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

The latest Workstation comes with many notable features:
http://vmware.com/support/ws65/doc/releasenotes_ws65.html

but it is not packaged in "tar balls": there is a "bundle" -- 
self extracting script instead. RPM package seems to be just an 
encapsulation of this script, hence it does not seem to cooperate 
with package managers (I rely on dlocate utility in particular).

Perhaps someone could figure out how to repackage this bundle 
into deb files?

Thanks

Marius
