I know I'm coming in late, and judging from other replies this probably won't work, but have you tried yum-complete-transaction? I'd suggest using --skip-broken, but that only checks for certain errors in the files rather than doing what the name implies.

Going off-topic for a moment, and presuming that dnf acts the same way (I don't, as yet, have a box using it.) should there be a bugzilla either complaining that the switch doesn't actually do what it says (e.g., skipping to the next package if this one is broken instead of only being able to pull it out of the transaction if the signature (I think it is.) doesn't match.) or requesting that it be renamed to something more appropriate, with the current switch being left as an alias for the correct one to keep scripts from breaking. I'm neutral on the subject, although I'd prefer that something be done to keep people from wasting time trying in cases where it doesn't apply.
