But that also mean that jenkins, if there is a security issue, can just
change its own code and so make any malware be persistant :/

I updated the rpm this morning (or afternoon), and just restarted
jenkins, tell me if there is issues.
(like, new issue)

Also, if someone want to help, I think jenkins-job-builder would be
great to use to track the job and config in git :)
