Maybe one could do something like that exhaustive search for Webster-based methods: Increase the divisor until the constraints only satisfy a single council, then pick that one. Each solid coalition would form a constraint of the form "elect at least round(num voters supporting coalition/divisor)".
Er, ignore that. Increasing divisor would only permit more councils, since at the ultimate point, one might have divisor = very large number, which would give: [any coalition] [>= 0 seats], and thus permit everything.
