>Environment:
# cd /usr/ports/emulators/vmware-guestd6
# make install clean

install: /usr/ports/emulators/vmware-guestd6/work/vmmemctl-only/vmmemctl.ko: No such file or directory
*** Error code 71
>Description:
When I try to install port vmware-guestd6 or 5 I get the error:


---------------------------------------
# cd /usr/ports/emulators/vmware-guestd6

# make install clean

install: /usr/ports/emulators/vmware-guestd6/work/vmmemctl-only/vmmemctl.ko: No such file or directory
*** Error code 71
---------------------------------------

I don't know if this problem persists also in vmware-guestd3 or 4, because I cannot install them cause their installation is available only for i368 and I run amd64
>How-To-Repeat:
Impossible compiling vmware-guestd port cause missing library
>Fix:
I can fix the problem manually moving the vmmemctl.ko :

# cp /usr/ports/emulators/vmware-guestd6/work/vmmemctl.ko \
/usr/ports/emulators/vmware-guestd6/work/vmmemctl-only/

# make install clean

OK!
