Yes. This issue came up in the flock talk about rawhide gating. It's
currently not possible to create buildroot overrides for rawhide, since the
packages get stuck in the wrong tag.

Even so, creating buildroot overrides in rawhide should never be necessary
except in extraordinary circumstances (like only an older version of gradle
being able to build itself).
