So the timeout of wpkg.js seems to work properly in this case.

Well, there might be multiple reasons for it...

This is indeed quite strange. Writing wpkg.xml is one of the last thing wpkg.js
does before it exits. So I really assume it exits properly. Any hint what could
have happened? Event log entries? Do you get a full debug log of wpkg.js output
for reference?

Absolutely right, that should be expected behavior.

Is anybody else able to reproduce the problem?
