rdesktop is an optional run-time dependency. If you want to use krdc with RDP, you need to install rdesktop manually as told so by the ebuild:

pkg_postinst() {
        kde4-meta_pkg_postinst

        echo
        elog "To be able to connect using RDP protocol, install net-misc/rdesktop:"
        elog "    emerge -va net-misc/rdesktop"
        echo
}
