There's still the "blacklist" files, which can exclude packages in
needsign from being pushed [1]:
echo "xine-lib-extras-freeworld" >> rpmfusion_free-10-blacklist.txt
in the pushscript directory. One src.rpm %name per line. FE used these
lists for ignoring packages that create broken deps. Packages will stay in
needsign, however, and are available in the buildroots.

[1] The feature could be enhanced to create better filenames, which take
into account the two EPEL/Fedora flavours.
