13 What do you "-t option". With which executable ?

21 If I understand you correctley, you are suggesting to rebuilt all the
22 dependencies for this package. This is what I am getting. There's no
23 depedencies:
24 =================================================
25 localhost mansour # emerge dev-python/cryptography --with-bdeps=y
26
27 These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
28
29 Calculating dependencies... done!
30 [ebuild N ] dev-python/cryptography-1.1.2::gentoo
31 USE="(-libressl) {-test}" PYTHON_TARGETS="python2_7 python3_3 (-pypy)
32 -python3_4 (-python3_5)" 0 KiB
33
34 Total: 1 package (1 new), Size of downloads: 0 KiB
35
36 Would you like to merge these packages? [Yes/No]
37
38 =================================================
39
40 Can you please kindly elaborate ?
41
42 In fact I tried rebuilding the package few times, with the same error.

56 I am looking for a quick fix. Not sure if this is a good option now,
57 as I use this machine extensively , and would like to get it up to
58 date again !
59 But thank you anyway :)

61 By the way, I just did a sync,
62 and updating world. I can see a pending update for
63 dev-libs/openssl-1.0.2g-r2::gentoo. This will be strange as the
64 "equery" command shows there is no dependency. But let's see.
