Hello,

I'm trying to run my monthly "update world" maintenance on my laptop and I'm running into the following issue. At some point, I must have installed "cryptsetup" and to be honest I have no use for it. Since I dont realy have any use for it, I went ahead and removed it but portage still complains. Here is the exact message:

Code:


 emerge -avuDN world

 * IMPORTANT: 18 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'.
 * Use eselect news to read news items.


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

Calculating dependencies... done!

!!! The ebuild selected to satisfy "sys-fs/cryptsetup" has unmet requirements.
- sys-fs/cryptsetup-1.6.1::gentoo USE="gcrypt nls openssl python udev -kernel -nettle -reencrypt (-selinux) -static -static-libs -urandom" PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET="python2_7 -python2_5 -python2_6" PYTHON_TARGETS="python2_7 -python2_5 -python2_6"

  The following REQUIRED_USE flag constraints are unsatisfied:
    exactly-one-of ( gcrypt kernel nettle openssl )

  The above constraints are a subset of the following complete expression:
    exactly-one-of ( gcrypt kernel nettle openssl ) python? ( python_single_target_python2_5? ( python_targets_python2_5 ) python_single_target_python2_6? ( python_targets_python2_6 ) python_single_target_python2_7? ( python_targets_python2_7 ) exactly-one-of ( python_single_target_python2_5 python_single_target_python2_6 python_single_target_python2_7 ) )

(dependency required by "sys-fs/udisks-2.1.0[crypt]" [installed])
(dependency required by "kde-base/kdelibs-4.10.5[udisks]" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "kde-base/nepomuk-widgets-4.10.5" [ebuild])



I see that "udisks, kdelibs & nepomuk-widgets" depend on cryptsetup and that would explain why portage insist on installing it. I have no use for nepomuk-widgets and will remove. Not so sure about the other two? If I remove them, will my core system be affected in any way? Thanks in advance.

You have USE=gcrypt and USE=openssl which apparently is illegal for cryptsetup. Remove one of them from your USE flags.

If you're using KDE or pretty much any desktop environment, likely you will break things if you remove udisks or kdelibs.

And what about the "kernel" use flag?
kernel : Enable the kernel crypto backend

Should I enable it? Has it any impact on performance?

It says that the kernel backend is slow...

Code:
    if use kernel ; then
        ewarn "Note that kernel backend is very slow for this type of operation"
        ewarn "and is provided mainly for embedded systems wanting to avoid"
        ewarn "userspace crypto libraries."
    fi
