"décoincer" is what I was thinking, yes. Concretely, it means I have to
log into `elpa.gnu.org` and manually `git reset --hard` at the right
spot otherwise the cron job keeps giving me an error on the offending package.
It's due to a bug in `elpa-admin.el`, but it's one I haven't been able
to fix yet (and already "fixed it" once, so there's a chance that if
I "fix it" this time it still won't really be fixed).

That's the recommended way, yes.
