If I try to emerge aide-0.9 with USE=-crypt, the "configure" dies, complaining that it can't find libgcrypt. Indeed, the system doesn't have libgcrypt installed; but because of the USE flag, the configure script shouldn't look for libgcrypt in the first place. The bug is in the configure script, which treats --without-gcrypt identically to --with-gcrypt. The ebuild already has a workaround for a similar problem with USE=-postgres. Attached is a patch that applies the same workaround to the "crypt" USE flag. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. USE=-crypt emerge aide 2. 3. Actual Results: [much output deleted] checking for regexec... yes checking for regcomp... yes checking for gcrypt.h... no You don't have libgcrypt properly installed. Install it if you need one. !!! ERROR: app-admin/aide-0.9 failed. Expected Results: Not check for libgcrypt at all.

Created attachment 22122 [details, diff] Patch for aide-0.9.ebuild
Woops, I should have said, "Reproducible: if libgcrypt is NOT present on the system".
