kpt: Kustomize build fn errors

I’ve just tested it with the helm example. It works but I had to change paths in the example, because we can’t have both relatively helm-template/local-configs and (pwd)/helloworld-chart at the same time in the second command.

On the kustomize side (which was my first issue in https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/kpt/issues/791), I still have some problem (with the image but not with the kustomize official binary). I don’t think this is related to this but I prefer to share it:

Λ\: ./kpt pkg get "https://gitlab.com/davinkevin/Podcast-Server.git/distribution/kpt/podcast-server" podcast-server
fetching package /distribution/kpt/podcast-server from https://gitlab.com/davinkevin/Podcast-Server to podcast-server

Do you think we should open a new issue (or maybe the previous one) ?

PS: The binary of kpt hasn’t be published on brew for the version 0.32.0 sadly 😓.
