That's just plain wrong. I've been using *nix for 20 years, and I've never had it "ask to reboot". There's something fish+++y here.

Are you trying to tell me, that from the bash prompt, yum returned the output "you need to reboot" after installing nautilus-open-terminal? AFAIK the word "reboot" does not even exist anywhere in the sources of either rpm or yum, so I'd like to know where *that's* coming from!
That plugin only requires a restart of Nautilus to activate, IIRC you don't even need to log out, just kill and respawn Nautilus, but a "reboot" ... nonsense.
There is only ever one thing that *requires* a reboot under Linux, and that is to use a new kernel.
My mistake. They are using a mixture of upper and lower caps; yes it *does* make a difference:
rpm -ql VMwareWorkstation
Note your typo: it's "vmware" not "wmware"
I have tried in vain to download the eval of VMware, but whatever js they have running on their site isn't playing with my setup. So I'll have to guess.
IIRC VMware place their binaries in:
usr-lib-vmware-bin
For some reason.
Anyway, the above rpm command should tell you for sure.
The problem seems to be stemming from VMware mixing case in their naming conventions, combined with a failure to follow the FHS.
Again with the "w".
No, that's Windows MetaFile vector graphics stuff.
