AuR vmware-workstation v12.5.6 - v11 required (Maybe wrong forum?)

Hi,

I have recently installed vmware-workstation, I need to install v11 instead of version 12 (no unity support in v12).

I haven't had v11 installed on this arch installation so I can't use the cache to go backwards and as its part of the AuR rather then the official repositories.

Please can anyone advise if there is away of getting the old version from AuR?

thanks

Sorry, I can't find an existing PKGBUILD file... The AUR only goes back to version 12.5.2, and the old AUR repos only go up to version 9.0.2 (??).

Of course, there is always the option to make your own PKGBUILD file, but the build process for this package looks massive...

Have you tried to email VMware and request?
