You should be able to do a remote scratch build using Koji, download the
binary RPMs, and point fedora-review at those. But I spent 30 minutes
trying to get that to work a few days ago and was singularly
unsuccessful, so I gave up and did the review manually. If anyone knows
the magic command line to make that work, please share. I tried all the
obvious stuff from the manpage (--prebuilt, --no-build) without apparent
success, it just kept wanting to run mock.

I mostly quit doing mock builds a couple years back and I just use Koji
as my scratch builder now.
