You can't at the moment but that said package maintainers shouldn't be
building that packages on arm the process is to build them mainline x86 and
we have a process called koji-shadow that recreates the repos with the
minimum version of libraries (such as ljbuv).

You'll need to let me know the list of packages you screwed up so I can go
and reset them.

While I have a nodejs person about if you really want to help out I have 3
nodejs packages that are segfaulting on build you could investigate. I
think most of the rest are built or awaiting the failed packages. Unless
there's some built against your problem builds that I'll need to reset as
well. I'm travelling at the moment but I'll reply later with the 3 problem
packages.
