I am getting a blockage involving device mapper

I looked on bgo and found posts today involving this. They were
"resolved" by noting "device-mapper was merged upstream into lvm2.
Emerge a recent lvm2, it will automatically
unmerge old device-mapper."
I am not running lvm2 on this machine. I have device mapper because
sys-fs/cryptsetup-1.0.6-r2 pulled in by:
sys-apps/hal-0.5.12_rc1-r8
sys-fs/device-mapper-1.02.24-r1 pulled in by:
sys-fs/cryptsetup-1.0.6-r2
Does this mean I should emerge lvm2 even though this machine does not
use logical volumes?
thanks,
