You should try 0.4.1a.

I ended up just emerging arts anyway so it would work.  This is just an ebuild problem I think, not a problem with smb4k itself, though maybe their autotools configuration is not set-up correctly and emerge cannot disable arts support without a patch.  Anyhow, I'm not sure this that big an issue, I just wanted to notify that the ebuild had this quirk.

Should not be a problem with newer versions of smb4k.
