I've downloaded one from http://ftp.cvut.cz/vmware/, but it doesn't
work:

genius% /tmp/vmware-any-any-update89/update vmware
/usr/local/lib/vmware/bin/vmware
Updating /usr/local/lib/vmware/bin/vmware ... failed
Cannot open /usr/local/lib/vmware/bin/vmware: m
genius% /tmp/vmware-any-any-update89/update vmware /usr/local/lib/vmware/bin 
Updating /usr/local/lib/vmware/bin ... failed                               
Cannot open /usr/local/lib/vmware/bin: m

:(.  Is there another version?
