Then you can open a bug report asking for its removal from the repositories. If the maintainer does not take action in a reasonable time-frame, the package would end up orphaned then removed.
What you can *not* expect is to use the Fediverse instead of a bugs tracker (it’s not that the compilation bug is not currently reported, it’s that it has *never* been reported), and hope that for some reason the maintainers of the packages you have an interest in are following your posts ;)
