I don't know how to report this issue top vmware (tried to go through my account subscription).
I had previously reported it, but since I am a "Slackware" user, I was told this was a non-issue and my report closed. BTW: I am a professional programmer and figured out what the issue is.
The script tries to look for "update-rc.d", which for Slackware, does not exist. The "internal_which" routine returns ''. However, it is compared to ' ' (a single space) and the script attempts to call a non-existent "update-rc.d" script and fails, generating an error message during install.
FIX: remove the errant space. See attached screenshots.
