If you package has a huge dependency tree, there isn't a fix, except
move from travis away to a private instance or jenkins.

I don't think this is possible. The problem lies in the
packaging of LEDE. As long LEDE doesn't package the development files
into packages, the build of e.g. php-mysql would require to build mysql,
because header files are not included in the mysql package.
