Impressive that we've got a fifth patch release this time. As discussed in our call today, creating release candidates would improve everybody's life by a ton! Issue opened here: #1646 |
Yea, we only remove a check, so except this being more error-prone (we will reopen #1351), those who already did a work to adjust their test should be not impacted. However, for empirical test purposes, I kindly asked @krajorama to create a quick PR on Mimir with PR to double check (: EDIT: One test failed grafana/mimir#9624 (comment), but only because a different error message was produced. I think it's acceptable or not as smooth as I expected. Seems like still it's more annoying to keep this change vs revert, so proceeding. |
I spoke to a few people (e.g. @dashpole @dgrisonnet @kakkoyun @ArthurSens @vesari @logicalhan), and it feels it might be easier for everyone to revert.

Rationales:
I propose we revert this, and work on a long term solution. With the team we also discussed a way, where every client_golang release pipeline could propose an upgrade PR to a Kubernetes library that heavily depends on client_golang and check if the CI passes (compatibility check with a big user) -- to avoid similar issues in the future.
