Hello everybody, this is my first time here and i'm a newbie, i've been using Mint for 1 year, Nowadays i'm trying Fedora 27 but i need to work on VMWare to build my personal network-lab.
When i tried to start it but never work or appear an error, looking on google for similars cases and i could find information that i have to patch the modules and stick to do some steps before to compile vmmon and vmnet.
After to did this steps/patching(patch was made by arch community) VMware did show me other problem, this:
That window appeared after used the patch, so i stick to other steps and i try to compile vmmon and vmnet but i had this problem.
Using standalone build system.

I don't know what should i do to solve this problem, move to Debian/Ubuntu based Distro or still try.
Fedora 27 x64 using Kernel 4.14
steps that i did before to compile:
# cp -r /usr/lib/vmware-installer/2.1.0/lib/lib/libexpat.so.0 /usr/lib/vmware/lib
# cd /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libz.so.1
# mv -i libz.so.1 libz.so.1.old
# ln -s /usr/lib64/libz.so.1 .
HELP!
