Actual Results: arts gets emerged Expected Results: arts shouldn't get instaled
arts is listed as a strict dependency, so this seems normal (see also bug 73075). Probably it can compile without arts, too, but karamba is currently unmaintained upstream and unmaintained in Gentoo (it's a "no-herd" package), so I doubt someone would want to fix the ebuild. Probably it should be removed from portage...
No, it doesnt compile without aRts. I'm using superkaramba now, it emerged fine :) Am i supposed to close this bug?
removed the configure check for arts in karamba-0.17-r2
