Who said that zypper can't be submitted manually? AFAIK you can, you just 
should not under normal circumstances. If Hudson breaks, or someone breaks 
the build on Hudson like in the above scenario, you can submitt manually. 

All we have to do is to take care that our actions and Hudsons automated 
actions fit together. 

It might be possible to 'tell' Hudson to stay with a specific version; maybe 
by tagging a specific revision as frozen in git. Hudson could use the frozen 
revision instead of matser:HEAD then. 

And/or we ivnent a lock file in zypp:Head that prevents Hudson from uploading 
new versions of a package, if the package is locked.

We should IMO head for a solution, not for some workaround.
