Plague can do scratch-builds, also if configured to build only from
cvs. They are called "testing" builds though and need additional
build targets and optionally add-ons for the cvs Makefiles.
In the end it afaics makes a whole lot of work for a very small gain and
thus I think I can spend my time on things that are more important for
RPM Fusion.
BTW, here it poor mens scratch build for RPM Fusion: Kick of a build,
watch it closely and kill it once the last arch finished (and before its
downloaded -- if you miss that point drop me a line and I'll delete the
package from the needsign repo)
