This just came up a few days ago. See

That was a problem with installing vmware on an openSUSE 11.0 system.

What Shawn is trying to do is to install openSUSE 11.0 under vmware which is already installed on 10.3.

I am having the same problem. I told it to go ahead and compile anyway.
Then it came up with:

If you are compiling, you are intalling vmare. You don't compile anything to install suse inside vmware. I don't understand.


The problem with the compiler number is that the output of:
gcc -dumpversion is 4.3 whereas
gcc --version shows 4.3.1 (prerelease) which is probably why they don't match.

vmware-config-tools.pl looks at 'gcc -dumpversion'

Which is a vmware bug :-)


So just answer yes to the gcc version question.

Right.
