Maybe.
That optional dependency means installing 6.8 extra MB, which once
compressed with squashfs are about 2.5 MB.
The space on a live-CD is precious, and I dont' think that feature
(assuming Amarok made use of it) is worth 2.5 MB of a Kubuntu live-CD
.
Maybe a fair solution would be building two versions of the library,
one with gdk-pixbuf support, and another without.
