Error in Install documentation with Helm TF provider

[photosojourn]

Hey,

During testing, I found an error in the examples for Getting Started with Terraform - Install Karpenter Helm Chart. Due to changes released in Kubectl 1.24 which where rolled into Helm the TF provider needs to the pinned to version .2.5.1 as documented here.

Given EKS 1.23 is out the whole section prob needs a refresh. :)

Thanks!

but those docs already use v1beta1, not v1alpha1
api_version = "client.authentication.k8s.io/v1beta1"

Is the only part missing the version pin?

    helm = {
      source  = "hashicorp/helm"
      version = "~> 2.5"
    }

I thought that ~> 2.5 would allow 2.5.1 , but I might be mistaken.

From Terraform docs:

[~>](https://www.terraform.io/language/expressions/version-constraints#-3): Allows only the rightmost version component to increment. For example, to allow new patch releases within a specific minor release, use the full version number: ~> 1.0.4 will allow installation of 1.0.5 and 1.0.10 but not 1.1.0. This is usually called the pessimistic constraint operator.

This reads like ~> 2.5 only allows it to install 2.6 and not patches... which makes no sense to me...

Maybe we should use >= 2.5.1, < 3.0.0 ?

I thought that ~> 2.5 would allow 2.5.1 , but I might be mistaken.

from my experience, it should. but very easy to test
