What do you need that repository for? Who added it to your Ubuntu installation? It does not belong to the default repositories.

There aren't any packages for Ubuntu 17.10 in ppa:ehoover/compholio, so remove this ppa from your software sources:
sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:ehoover/compholio
sudo apt updateDownload the latest VMware Workstation Player for Linux version from the official VMware website.
Change directories using
cd
to the directory that the VMware .bundle file that you download is in:cd /path/to/directory/that/contains/VMware-bundle
Make the VMware Player bundle file executable.
chmod +x VMware-Player-14.1.1-7528167.x86_64.bundle
Install VMware Player.
sudo sh ./VMware-Player-14.1.1-7528167.x86_64.bundle
Install Open VMware Tools for virtual machines hosted on VMware. It is a suite of virtualization utilities and drivers to improve the functionality, user experience and administration of VMware virtual machines.
sudo apt install open-vm-tools-desktop
