Well, I'm not a Chakra or kde user but I can say that I quite familiar with the PKGBUILDS of core and extra packages, and needless to say, it's not always consistent most of the times. So stop blaming others and work your ass off when required!
Very polite of you. Let me reply with an equally polite "Shut up, when you don't know what you are talking about".
None of the packaging problems mentioned in the original post exist in core/extra, there are no file conflicts when using kde from extra, and there is not a single package in extra (and probably also community)that requires or uses libjpeg.so.62.
The only explanation I have is:- chakra installs outdated versions of arch packages in combination with kdemod packages which depend on libjpeg.so.6 - chakra installs kdemod, which since extra/kde 4.3 was released don't have proper conflicts= tags, so there will be file conflicts unless you delete the kdemod packages first.
All the problems mentioned in this "fresh installation" result from the fact that the system was installed from chakra and has non-official packages on it that induce incompatibilities with the stock package set.
