Yes, but there's still a wait until it's actually available to build
against, though it's usually a wait of less than an hour rather than the

And to manually wait until A is in the rawhide buildroot:
koji wait-repo dist-rawhide --build=A-%{version}-%{release}
e.g.
koji wait-repo dist-rawhide --build=perl-Digest-Perl-MD5-1.8-2.fc17
