Hmm, I just tried to write a little script for that (based on the one
from above), but I had some problems with bodhi.

e.g. 'repoquery --requires bodhi' shows nothing (because there are only
subpackages and no main package). When calling 'repoquery --requires
bodhi-client', there should be a python(abi), but there is only:
/usr/bin/python
koji
python-fedora >= 0.3.5
python-simplejson
yum

So it might not be a that easy task...

I think rebuilding the complete repo would be the easiest (or along
with gcc 4.5. If a package fails, it can be compiled locally without
gcc 4.5, but with python 2.7, so it can be decided, what rebuild caused
it...

Or do you have another idea, to find all the needed packages?
(I still wonder, why bodhi-client doesn't require python(abi) = 2.6....)
