I'm having the exact same problem after updating to Karmic Koala. I really need hamachi to work, anyone knows a workaround or an alternative?

[nachokb (nachokb)]

Problem was that Hamachi's binary was packed with UPX (somehow that worked in previous versions, but now it blows up).

Make sure you have upx-ucl installed

> sudo aptitude install upx-ucl
> upx -d hamachi

then the binary works...

P.S. sorry I didn't comment it before, I solved it a few days ago
