For those of us who are not skilled in building a release, what does this exactly mean? I can imagine bugs that prevent compose (no package repo created), but this one could deserve a closer explanation.

What about broken gdm, does it fall into the category? Should "critical path packages" be also covered by this tracker bug? (Firefox broken, pulseaudio broken, gnome-terminal broken, yum broken, ...)

I support this a lot.
