4 VMware seems to bundle everything they need. Currently, revdep-rebuild
5 triggers false positives for a library that is no longer in portage
6 (libgtop-2.0.so.7 from gnome-base/libgtop-2.28.5; it was removed from
7 the tree.)

9 I'd like to do the same as firefox-bin and other binary packages, and
10 add an /etc/revdep-rebuild/ file:

12 SEARCH_DIRS_MASK="/opt/vmware"
