tiff:3 is rdepend of vmware-workstation-12 and is removed from gentoo tree. #46

tiff:3 is rdepend with bundled-libs and is no longer in the gentoo tree. If tiff:4 cannot be used please add tiff:3 ebuild to the overlay.

I have tried to install vmware with bundled-libs, the dependency on tiff:3 is required by /opt/vmware/lib/vmware/libconf/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/loaders/libpixbufloader-tiff.so

tiff:3 is also binary incompatible with latest tiff:4

But I don't see any tiff image shipped with the software, when using the user interface (even with -bundled-libs) I see only loaded the png or svg counterparts

I think it's safe to ignore the dependency as the software doesn't complain about its presence. What do you think?

There's also virtual/jpeg:62 which is another unnecessary dependency which cannot be satisfied anymore.
