Bugzilla Bug 71919

The installation of kde-misc/ksmoothdock-3.5.1 will fail if kde-base/arts is
not installed.

This problem occurs regardless of whether the arts USE flag is turned on or
off.  I was able to fix it by installing the kde-base/arts package (version
1.3.1), but if this is always the case (if ksmoothdock depends on the arts
package), then I think the ksmoothdock ebuild should be modified to include
kde-base/arts as a depend.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge unmerge kde-base/arts
2. emerge ksmoothdock
Actual Results:  
Here is the end of the installation log (created by doing "emerge ksmoothdock
2>&1 | tee ksmoothdock.log"):

Thanks for reporting this, it should now be fixed. Please sync your portage
tree (probably the sync mirrors needs some time to be updated) and try again.
Let us know if it works.
