Sometimes zypper lu comes back with a warning that metadata of a repository expired:
# zypper ref
Repository 'Main Repository (NON-OSS)' is up to date.
Repository 'Update Repository (Non-Oss)' is up to date.
Repository 'Main Repository (OSS)' is up to date.
Repository 'Main Update Repository' is up to date.
Repository 'Update repository of openSUSE Backports' is up to date.

# zypper lu
Loading repository data...
Warning: Repository 'Main Update Repository' metadata expired since 2024-02-07 10:23:56 CET.
Warning: Repository metadata expired: Check if 'autorefresh' is turned on (zypper lr), otherwise
manually refresh the repository (zypper ref). If this does not solve the issue, it could be that
you are using a broken mirror or the server has actually discontinued to support the repository.
Reading installed packages...
No updates found.
Apparently this should only be a warning as it can happen if there were no updates published in the last 30 days (or some other expiration period).
Expected behavior
At least with using '-o' option this should result in an OK or WARNING state.
Current behavior
Currently check_zypper always returns CRITICAL state:
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_zypper -r -s -w security
Updates CRITICAL : Repository Main Update Repository metadata expired since 2024-02-07 10:23:56 CET.
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_zypper -o -r -s -w security
Updates CRITICAL : Repository Main Update Repository metadata expired since 2024-02-07 10:23:56 CET.
Steps to reproduce
Reproducing this is a bit hit and miss as it depends on the state of enabled repositories.

Logfile
Unfortunately as I was writing this, the repository updated and now I no longer get the same result - so log is probably irrelevant.
