Genymotion - /usr/lib64/libX11.so.6: undefined symbol: xcb_wait_for_reply64

Question

I installed Genymotion on openSUSE Leap 42.1 and don't have success to execute. I'm getting the following error:

genymotion/genymotion: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/libX11.so.6: undefined symbol: xcb_wait_for_reply64

I have no idea what may have caused the problem. Anyone else seen this?

To solve this problem, navigate to extracted folder (/opt/genymobile/genymotion in my case) and remove the libxcb.so.1 file.
