With the same argument, maybe add should also add cdrkit.

What's the use of a CD burning program if you can't burn CDs with it? These programs aren't optional, but are basic functionality of k3b.

Yeah, it's interesting, because if you involve those 2 dependencies, you will get warning from namcap.
I've attached the modified PKGBUILD.

namcap is not holy here, so "fixing" packages to get rid of namcap warnings is never good.

JGC, if you see the PKGBUILD, you will see I didn't do that to get rid of namcap warnings :P
