What happened?

I attempted to install the strimzi operator using the Helm Release from Crossplane. I get the following error when crossplane attempts to install the chart:

   - lastTransitionTime: '2021-08-27T15:55:40Z'
      message: >-
        create failed: failed to install release: failed to load chart: stat
        /tmp/charts/strimzi-kafka-operator-0.25.0.tgz: no such file or directory
      reason: ReconcileError
      status: 'False'
      type: Synced

Aaron Eaton helped me on Slack find the real problem.
He discovered the strimzi chart;

  • creates a file named: strimzi-kafka-operator-helm-3-chart-0.25.0.tgz
  • however provider-helm is expecting strimzi-kafka-operator-0.25.0.tgz

He also discovered a workaround where you can set the spec.forProvider.chart.url directly to the source, I have this commented out in the snippet below.

How can we reproduce it?

apiVersion: helm.crossplane.io/v1beta1
kind: Release
metadata:
  name: kafka-operator
spec:
  forProvider:
    chart:
      name: strimzi-kafka-operator
      repository: https://strimzi.io/charts
      # use url instead of repository as a workaround
      # url: https://github.com/strimzi/strimzi-kafka-operator/releases/download/0.25.0/strimzi-kafka-operator-helm-3-chart-0.25.0.tgz
      version: 0.25.0
    namespace: strimzi
    skipCreateNamespace: false
    values:
      watchAnyNamespace: true

What environment did it happen in?

Crossplane version: 1.3.0
Helm Provider version: v0.9.0-rc
