See comment #33. I agree with that and will change it for the next release.

I got your point but as they can be used as a stand alone lib I just thought
that this split up would make sense

That is not the problem... just for the heck of it do a 'yum remove arts' or
'yum install arts' depending on if you have it installed or not... that is where
the kde part kicks in...

Yes and why is this? Because most packages are not split up and users don't get
the choice of installing only parts of them and I doubt that for most packages
this makes sense. koffice and ooo in my opinion are good examples where these
make sense and wine for that matter as well. Just my opinion.
