Assuming that it's meant for 68mm wide bottom bracket, yes, you're right. Often times the "package" includes one or more spacers that allow you to "tune" the chainline. Otherwise, if you find that the chainline is NOT 43.5mm, you can always purchase spacers of varying sizes on the 'Bay to account for variances between frame and BB models. I wouldn't worry about it.
