Description

The docs refer to v0.9.1 for the TCE Package Repository. This means kpack won't be available for installation.

Additional Context

I wasn't aware of this, so the package repository should be = v0.9.2
but the latest TCE release remains at v0.9.1

Yeah, we needed to release a new package repo update to pick up kpack, but that didn't correspond to a full TCE release. So there is a newer package repo.

Is there a way we can set a docs variable to pick this up that would default to be the same as the normal release version, but would allow us to update it to something else if needed?

[kcoriordan]

@stmcginnis
OK, I can add a variable for this
When v0.10.0 goes out, will the package repo change to 0.10.0

[stmcginnis]

When v0.10.0 goes out, will the package repo change to 0.10.0

Yes, I believe that is the plan. But if we find some need to update the available packages between then and v0.11.0, we would have the same situation and end up with a 0.10.1 package repo version.

[kcoriordan]

OK so I created a variable and this should probably get updated by automation when the repo is tagged for final GA?
and if we need a different pkg repo version between releases, we can update the pkg-repo variable manually
