This is for me the most ugly part. There is huge risk for us to again
hit problems like:
1) package is for Leap, but versions above is for factory
2) worker do not have recent enough versions, so we do not detect
problems earlier
3) we have to maintain it on server side.

That is reason why we introduce idea of simple git tarball and using
osc to do all generation, building and other steps.

For me nice step forward, but we really have to remove such
dependencies in tarball creation process.
