ok, i found one:

poldek> install --test arts-devel-1.0.5a-2
Processing dependencies...
arts-devel-1.0.5a-2 marks arts-1.0.5a-2 (cap arts = 7:1.0.5a-2)
   arts-1.0.5a-2 marks qt-3.0.5-17 (cap libqt-mt.so.3)
     qt-3.0.5-17 marks Xft-2.0-1 (cap Xft >= 1.9.1)
     qt-3.0.5-17 marks XFree86-Mesa-libGLU-4.2.0-72 (cap libGLU.so.1)
     qt-3.0.5-17 marks libmng-1.0.4-1 (cap libmng.so.1)
There are 6 packages to install (5 marked by dependencies):
I arts-devel-1.0.5a-2
D XFree86-Mesa-libGLU-4.2.0-72, Xft-2.0-1, libmng-1.0.4-1, qt-3.0.5-17, 
arts-1.0.5a-2

the problem is the dependency 'XFree86-Mesa-libGLU-4.2.0-72'. there are 
newer versions available:

poldek> what-provides libGLU.so.1
3 package(s) found:
XFree86-Mesa-libGLU-4.2.0-72
XFree86-Mesa-libGLU-4.2.1-20
XFree86-Mesa-libGLU-4.2.1-21
