Hi, gentoo.

When I try to run an emerge world, I get this error:

# emerge --update --deep -p world

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

Calculating dependencies... done!

emerge: there are no ebuilds built with USE flags to satisfy "dev-libs/libgcrypt[static-libs]".
!!! One of the following packages is required to complete your request:
- dev-libs/libgcrypt-1.4.6 (Change USE: +static-libs)
(dependency required by "sys-fs/cryptsetup-1.1.3-r3[-dynamic]" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "sys-apps/hal-0.5.14-r4[crypt]" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "@selected" [set])
(dependency required by "@world" [argument])

What is this saying?  That I need to locate a use flag "static-libs" and
change it for package libgcrypt?  Presumably it is libgcrypt which is
dissatisfied.  I'm having difficulty parsing the mssage.

Next question: what should I do about it?

Thanks for the help!
