Looks to me as if these snippets have no effect on the set of installed files: * “qlist -e tovid | xargs grep 'import.*Image'” gives no match, so those imports aren't part of the textual content of installed files * “grep -r snippets .” in the WORKDIR of the ebuild gives only a single unrelated match, so that directory is not involved in the build process * The ebuild does not mention “snippets” either So it seems that there is no urgent need to update any files. Instead, the dependency on imaging could be altered to virtual/python-imaging, or perhaps even dropped completely. Unless these snippets SHOULD get installed, and are only omitted due to some deficiency of the ebuild. Looking at CVS, it seems that this dependency was introduced by the version bump to tovid-0.29 (07 Nov 2006). The ChangeLog does not give any indication as to why that dep should be neccessary. Instead it references bug 101346 which looks completely unrelated. The correct reference should be bug 154266, and indeed bug 154266 comment 2 talks about this imaging dependency. Not sure whether there is any reason to actually have that. I can see none.
Dropping the (unnecessary) dependency on dev-python/imaging would be an acceptable solution.
