Sure! The hypothetical procedure I gave can perform arbitrary checks;
it could be passed a manifest.

We never have 100% of successful builds. Of course we do our best to
keep the failure rate low, but sometimes there are unpopular packages
that remain broken for some time, or there are packages for which we
forgot to exclude some systems via ‘supported-systems’, and of course
there’s unintended breakage.
