Of course, a temporary staging repo would be needed. Filling it isn't
trivial, however, and requires lots of iterations and a bullet-proof
"--skip-broken" finder (which, for example, doesn't use compat-arch
packages to resolve "broken" dependencies). Also, for any package that
enters the skip-broken list, all the corresponding src.rpm's builds
must be excluded and another check be done.
Possibly it must even be taken into account which src.rpms belong to the
same bodhi ticket to withdraw a complete package set (to avoid pushing
something where the automatic dependencies aren't strict enough).
