I'm convinced that I am too tired to understand this because I noticed I have 
been missing out words in my response (sorry!).  Would you mind simplifying 
it for me?

I have rebuilt noatune and krec with "-arts" set in make.conf.  Does this 
change the dependencies they have on arts?  Or is it "unconditional" in the 
sense that noatune *always* depends on kde-base/arts no matter what I set 
in /etc/make.conf?  If that's the case I'll just unmerge noatune and forget 
about it.
