synce few days, I have a message of portage suggestiung me to use the "static-

What may be the consequence ? Please be gentle with explaining this sorte of

otherwise I am a little bit familiar with it !
Enabling this flag will install a static version of libjpeg alongside
the dynamic one. You do not need to worry; other programs will continue
using the dynamic version, since this is the default. The static
version will only be used by programs that specifically demand it and
would otherwise not work.
So there are no consequences at all in enabling this USE flag.
