I will look into libarts/libarts1 issue, but I know for certain the
kdelibs issue is not resolvable, I have looked at it along with Kurt
Granoth. If I remember correctly, it is almost possible to do but
leaves the programs that do work limping along, certainly not in state
most users would want.
Once KDE 3 goes in though a lot of the KDE 2 apps will be updated. So it
won't be nearly as big a problem as it is with KDE 3 outside the archive.
