Hello Everyone, I’m trying to install Jenkins-operator on k3s node using Helm and it failed with below message

```bash
Error: failed to download "jenkins/jenkins-operator" (hint: running `helm repo update` may help)

```

After repo update I try to install it once again with --debug, and this is the result.

```bash
install.go:173: [debug] Original chart version: ""
Error: failed to fetch https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jenkinsci/kubernetes-operator/master/chart/jenkins-operator/jenkins-operator/jenkins-operator-0.5.3.tgz : 404 Not Found

If you have any workaround on how I can resolve this please share.  
Thanks

I didn’t know helm would download raw files like that.  
The file does exist:  
[https://github.com/jenkinsci/kubernetes-operator/raw/master/chart/jenkins-operator/jenkins-operator-0.5.3.tgz](https://github.com/jenkinsci/kubernetes-operator/raw/master/chart/jenkins-operator/jenkins-operator-0.5.3.tgz)  
which would make the url be  
[https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jenkinsci/kubernetes-operator/master/chart/jenkins-operator/jenkins-operator-0.5.3.tgz](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jenkinsci/kubernetes-operator/master/chart/jenkins-operator/jenkins-operator-0.5.3.tgz)

(took me a while to find the diff of an extra /jenkins-operator)

I recommand forking and submitting a pr to fix [https://github.com/jenkinsci/kubernetes-operator/blob/058ea61d707f0e5864ebb4333c9ced6bfd06d188/chart/index.yaml#L12](https://github.com/jenkinsci/kubernetes-operator/blob/058ea61d707f0e5864ebb4333c9ced6bfd06d188/chart/index.yaml#L12)

I don’t know how you’ve installed your chart repo, so maybe you can update the repo locally, but doing a PR helps not just you but everyone.

Thank you very much @zyzyx03 for reporting this and @halkeye for the fix idea. I’ve issued a PR that fixes this and also the Makefile target used for releasing the Helm chart, so that this issue doesn’t come up in the future.
