What you mention here is a *mistake* by an editor. And that editor
was probably me. I cannot find where jpeg is mentioned as a recommended
dependency by the KDE devs in any of the docs. Though it is recommended
by almost every other package, aRts is not one of them. I probably
goofed on this one.

Why is it that you guys won't write in about these observations
earlier? Surely, you just didn't go through the book tonight because
of this thread looking for instances. It would be nice if things
like this were mentioned when they are discovered.
