Trying to compile kmyfirewall with the "-arts" USE flag set (running an arts free system). Emerge dies with a complaint about not being able to find arts.

Same issue as in Bug 76412. Why this thing needs arts just evades me...
> Why this thing needs arts just evades me... Officially KDE 3.x strictly depends on aRts. Gentoo is pushing a bit, but this means we need to patch configure files occasionally. It's not fun, it happens slowly and it's not a bug blocking you to use Gentoo at all.
Okay. How hard is it to fix this? Do I just have to patch the configure script so it doesn't look for aRTS, or do I have to mess around with the source?
