How do I get out of this?

$ emerge -uptDN world

These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:

Calculating dependencies ... done!
[nomerge      ] app-admin/sudo-1.7.4_p5 
[nomerge      ]  virtual/mta-0 
[ebuild  N    ]   mail-mta/ssmtp-2.62-r8  USE="ipv6 ssl -maxsysuid (-md5sum)" 
[ebuild  N    ]  virtual/mta-0 
[nomerge      ] kde-base/kde-meta-4.4.5 
[nomerge      ]  kde-base/kdemultimedia-meta-4.4.5 
[nomerge      ]   kde-base/dragonplayer-4.4.5 
[nomerge      ]    media-libs/xine-lib-1.1.19 
[nomerge      ]     media-libs/libmng-1.0.10 
[ebuild   R   ]      virtual/jpeg-0  USE="-static-libs%" 
[blocks B     ] mail-mta/ssmtp ("virtual/mta" is blocking mail-mta/ssmtp-2.62-
r8)

 * Error: The above package list contains packages which cannot be
 * installed at the same time on the same system.

  (virtual/mta-0, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by
    =virtual/mta-0 required by (dev-lang/php-5.3.5, installed)
    virtual/mta required by (app-crypt/gnupg-2.0.17, installed)
    virtual/mta required by (dev-lang/php-5.3.5, installed)
    (and 7 more)

How do I even interpret it? Why is virtual/mta required suddenly? And why does 
ssmtp conflict with it?
