VMware Horizon Client Installation Issues

English Virtualization
8

I realize I am way too late to solve OPs problem but I thought I’d post my solution to help the next person. There are a couple of problems with installing on Tumbleweed but easily solvable.

  1. Not all Python dependencies are installed by default
  2. The installer has some problems running as root.

To fix 1:


sudo zypper install python
sudo zypper install python-xml
sudo zypper install python-curses

Note that I might have installed other dependencies as part of my other software - these are the ones that was missing on my setup.

To fix 2:
Run install in console mode


sudo ./VMware-Horizon-Client-4.10.0-11053294.x64.bundle --console

Hope it helps whoever passes this way!
