 Seems this package has not been built (yet) on ARM. But nevertheless it makes
 sense to change this Requires to a Recommends, since it's only needed by
 VMWARE anyway. 
 Heh, last time I checked the vmmouse driver had x86 assembly code
 inside. I'm fairly sure that's hard to compile on ARM :).  
 Oops. In that case also the build should be disabled. Could somebody please
 verify that the build fails?

 That one should also be changed to a Recommends. 
 Great! I'm surprised nobody saw this for PowerPC yet.  
 I guess ARM is meanwhile better tested than PPC. ;-) 
Personally I've been doing more testing on ppc than on arm, but on arm
apparently the packages are published more frequently. Took about a
month to get new packages to the ppc repositories. ;-)
