Horizon View Client install on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS x64?

[FunkyTechMonkey]

Has anyone been able to get the Horizon View Client (VMware-Horizon-Client-3.5.0-2999900.x64.bundle) to successfully run on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS x64?

I was able to get the all to install fine after linking the to with the command. The SCAN all comes back successful. The app opens fine. I am able to connect to View Server. I am also able to see the VDI. But when I try to connect to it, I get kicked out and see this message in the terminal window.

NOTE - I had some notes on when I was able to get this to work on 15.10. I have done the following just to see if this would work again on 16.04 but no success...

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386

sudo apt-get install libxss1:i386

sudo apt-get install libxml2:i386

sudo apt-get install freerdp-x11 libxml2:i386 libssl1.0.0:i386 libXtst6:i386 libudev1:i386 libpcsclite1:i386 libtheora0:i386 libv4l-0:i386 libpulse0:i386 libatk1.0-0:i386 libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0:i386 libgtk2.0-0:i386 libxss1:i386 libuuid1:i386 libudev1:i386 libspeex1:i386 gtk2-engines-murrine:i386

sudo apt-get install –reinstall gtk2-engines-murrine:i386

chmod a+x Downloads/VMware-Horizon-Client-3.5.0-2999900.x64.bundle

./Downloads/VMware-Horizon-Client-3.5.0-2999900.x64.bundle

ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT!!!

Does it work when you run it as sudo i.e. sudo vmware-view ?

The solution involves installing a few missing libraries and then also adding a sim-link to the current version of one or two of the libraries.  All the details can be found here: Ubuntu Forums  I now have it working on my Mint 18 box, which is based on Ubuntu 16.04.
