app-emulation/vmware-vsphere-cli-5.5.0.1549297

This is a version bump to install vmware-vsphere-client.

The package can be installed with the attached ebuild.

But, vmware-cmd are only working with two recents perl modules masked :

=dev-perl/Net-HTTP-6.60.0
=dev-perl/libwww-perl-6.50.0

That couldn't possibly belong anywhere near this bug report.

Very unfortunately,

. . . [vmware-overlay]

had to be been closed down
and was removed from overlays/repositories.xml:

. . . Bug 627666 - vmware: no reply to project status mail

. . . [ https://bugs.gentoo.org/627666#c8 ]


Currently up-to-date and perfectly working versions of vmware-workstation:
c.f.
  - Bug 663670     and
  - Bug 671218


HINT concerning vmware-player:
  - just install above;
  - vmware-player will be included :-)
