Description:
Missing kdebase in yakuake dependencies (installing it fixed the problem - I've checked in on my box)
I know - you don't want to download half the KDE just to use this small program on fuxbox or xfce, but the disturbing text
"Yakuake was unable to load the Konsole component.
A Konsole installation is required to use Yakuake."
and lack of console (just funny quake-like appearing text :>) isn't what you wanted downloading this package :)
Dunno wheter old versions had the same bug or not. I'm new to Arch.
My humble idea: yakuake is meant to use on KDE, so maybe developers thought, that it's obvious that if someone has kdelibs also has kdebase?
After all - there are people (me for example) using yakuake on other window managers (me on gnome, flux and xfce).

Additional info:
* package version: 2.9.4-1

Steps to reproduce:
Just replace kdelibs with kdebase in dependencies of this package (I hope kdelibs is in dependencies of kdebase).
This task depends upon

I just installed yakuake-2.9.6-1 on a fresh Arch and this dependency issue still exists. I had to install kdebase manually to be able to use yakuake.
