If an image pull takes too long skupper init times out. 

More assistance to the user is required to help solve this. In my case I had to revert to a "podman pull" to retrieve the image.

$ skupper switch podman 
$ skupper init --site-name MASTER --platform podman --ingress-host 10.10.10.15
Error: Error initializing Skupper - error pulling image registry.redhat.io/service-interconnect/skupper-router-rhel9:2.4.3: error reading response body: context deadline exceeded
