Answering in the generic:
if a KDE project X depends on a feature Y, said feature might be:
a) mandatory, in which case the user or the distro packager will need to
install / provide feature Y before X will build
b) optional, in which case the user or packager will be told of the missing
dependency and possibly reduced feature set in X, but the build will continue.
So it's really up to you to decide. Is this dependency really important? If
you can't do without, then distros will have to provide it.
