The agent plugin mk_zypper, which collects data about updates on SUSE Linux hosts, had an built-in timeout of 10 s. This was too short, since zypper refresh can run for 20 s or more. This werk increases the timeout to 50 s.

Note that this plugin is normally executed asynchronously and in large time intervals, so increasing this timeout is not problematic. For this werk to come into effect, you need to update the agent on affected hosts.
