These requirements render the karma automatism useless for all branches
except F13, because the fedora-packager package in F12 was iirc pushed
automatically after it received enough testing. If this implies, that
that the package should also be pushed in F13, then this should happen
automatically, too. Automatic default behaviour that leads to failure
should not exist.
