Cannot set image/jenkins version when installing public jenkins helm chart

Using Jenkins
1

I am using this chart to install jenkins:

But when I try to set a specific version of jenkins to use in the values file its ignored:

  values:
    rbac:
      create: true
      readSecrets: true   
    controller:
      image: "jenkins/jenkins"
      tag: "2.319.1-jdk11"

$ helm list
NAME   	NAMESPACE	REVISION	UPDATED                                	STATUS  	CHART         	APP VERSION
jenkins	jenkins  	1       	2022-03-01 00:44:32.678319869 +0000 UTC	deployed	jenkins-3.11.4	2.319.3

The deployed jenkins sts has:

kubectl get sts jenkins -oyaml | grep jenkins/jenkins
        image: jenkins/jenkins:2.319.3-jdk11
        image: jenkins/jenkins:2.319.3-jdk11

Based on the default values I would expect I could specify the jenkins version:

What am I missing?

that’s pretty suspicious indenting. Why is there values? Why is there one level before values?

I am installing jenkins through flux:

---
apiVersion: helm.toolkit.fluxcd.io/v2beta1
kind: HelmRelease
metadata:
  name: jenkins
  namespace: jenkins
  annotations:
    flux.weave.works/automated: "true"
spec:
  releaseName: jenkins
  interval: 5m
  chart:
    spec:
      chart: jenkins
      version: 3.11.4      
      sourceRef:
        kind: HelmRepository
        name: jenkins
        namespace: flux-system

  values:
    rbac:
      create: true
      readSecrets: true   
    controller:
      image: "jenkins/jenkins"
      tag: "2.319.1-jdk11"
      installPlugins:
        - kubernetes:1.29.4
        - git:4.7.1
        - configuration-as-code:1.51

Jenkins comes up fine and the listed plugins are installed but for some reason it keeps forcing version 2.319.3 of jenkins.

Its the same indenting i have, so I would recommend looking at flux logs or something.

Arg flux reconciler was failing after fixing that it works as expected sorry for wasting your time!
