Hi,
After some package update/install vmware ( 7.0.1 build 227600 x86_64) stopped working. When trying to start, I get an error:
/usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8/libssl.so.0.9.8: undefined symbol: EVP_ecdsa
ameeba 6:38 > md5sum /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8/libssl.so.0.9.8
8ee5d0ab909cbf5604ab025f836f5cc0 /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8/libssl.so.0.9.8
System is running Fedora Core 11 with all the latest updates with some multimedia tools and Nvidia drivers from rpmfusion.

Reinstalling vmware did not help.
Any ideas?

There is a suspicion that your libcrypto.so have been caught earlier than one bundled with vmware, try: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/vmware/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 && vmware & from command line

Hi,
yes, this was indeed the case, I realized that myself after browsing yum install log at one point, if you install the crypto packages from fedora, it will indeed break vmware. I still think this is vmware bug as they do provide their version, I think itä's only fair to assume that their software also uses it..
