I found https://github.com/kubernetes/client-go/issues/1075, which describes the issue that we are getting here.

The problem is that github.com/googleapis/gnostic was renamed to github.com/google/gnostic. Different dependencies are pulling in different names, so we get a bunch of errors because Go thinks that types from github.com/google/gnostic aren't the same as github.com/googleapis/gnostic

Ideally we would be able to upgrade all the dependencies to make this work, but it appears that we still have some (like k8s.io/cli-runtime) that still depend on the old name, while the newest kube-openapi depends on the new name (we need to upgrade kube-openapi to get the performance boost) - making them incompatible.

I'm not sure if there is any solution for this besides a replace statement.

Some other context: we had to make this gnostic name upgrade change in kustomize due to integration with kubectl: kubernetes-sigs/kustomize#4538

hit the same issue when bumping the set-namespace in porch #3028

@natasha41575 shall we bump the kyaml in all functions (set-namespace, starlark, apply-replacement) and sdk?

We need kubernetes-sigs/cli-utils#577
