Here is what I get when I try to install VMPlayer on Debian 10.1 :
root@debian:/home/matu/Téléchargements# bash VMware-Player-15.5.0-14665864.x86_64.bundle
Extracting VMware Installer...done.

You can request support.
To collect data to submit to VMware support, choose "Collect Support Data" from the Help menu.
You can also run the "vm-support" script in the Workstation folder directly.
We will respond on the basis of your support entitlement.
Same problem with the installation script :
./getplayer-linux

It usually stops at 61% of the progress bar and throws this message.
You don't see the 61% bar because i already tried to install it before, i just relaunched the installation to paste the result here.
I can't file a request support from VMPlayer because it is not installed.
