The VMware Horizon Client for Linux, allowing you to use your
Slackware box as a thin client and lets you connect to your company's
Virtual Desktop Infrastructure using the proprietary VMware View 6
PCoIP protocol.

*ATTENTION*: This build script installs binary, proprietary
software. Only use it if you need the proprietary parts and you are
OK with installing and using proprietary software. By installing
this SlackBuild you agree to the EULA you'll find installed in
/usr/doc/vmware-horizon-client-4.3.0/. If you do not agree, uninstall
the package.

This SlackBuild installs multiple components. At the moment only the
PCoIP and the Smart Card component seem to work. USB redirection and
Virtual Printing won't work.

To deactivate one of the working components, use the installation
options

PCOIP="NO"

and 

SMARTCRD="NO"

You could try to activate USB support by setting USB="YES". But there
will be a problem with libcrypto. If you find a fix, please email me.

This application is a 32bit application. It won't work on a
Slackware64 system without multilib capability. But it has been tested
and works with a multilib setup.
