Adding an OCI repo to repositories breaks if helmfile.lock is present

[denist-huma]

Reproduce

Start with a hemlfile.yaml

repositories:
  - name: jetstack
    url: https://charts.jetstack.io

releases:
  - name: cert-manager
    namespace: cert-manager
    chart: jetstack/cert-manager
    version: v1.6.1
    wait: true
    timeout: 300
    atomic: true
    cleanupOnFail: true
    createNamespace: true
    set:
      # for GKE also need a firewall rule https://cert-manager.io/docs/installation/compatibility/
      - name: webhook.securePort
        value: 8443
      - name: installCRDs
        value: true

run helmfile deps, helmfile.lock would be like:

version: v0.143.0
dependencies:
- name: cert-manager
  repository: https://charts.jetstack.io
  version: v1.6.1
digest: sha256:42efdf240ca1f4a8d19e8566204dcd50af1532e1e6b0fc9985ba59a00eee2593

Adding an OCI repo to repositories

repositories:
  - name: huma
    url: ghcr.io/huma-engineering/helm-charts
    oci: true
  - name: jetstack
    url: https://charts.jetstack.io

releases:
  - name: cert-manager
    namespace: cert-manager
    chart: jetstack/cert-manager
    version: v1.6.1
    wait: true
    timeout: 300
    atomic: true
    cleanupOnFail: true
    createNamespace: true
    set:
      # for GKE also need a firewall rule https://cert-manager.io/docs/installation/compatibility/
      - name: webhook.securePort
        value: 8443
      - name: installCRDs
        value: true

  - name: compose-operator
    namespace: compose-operator
    # chart: ../charts/compose-operator
    chart: huma/compose-operator
    version: 0.39.0

Try to get template:

$ helmfile template
Adding repo jetstack https://charts.jetstack.io
"jetstack" has been added to your repositories

in ./helmfile.yaml: [no resolved dependency found for "compose-operator", running "helmfile deps" may resolve the issue]

run helmfile deps, helmfile.lock would not change.

$ helmfile deps
Adding repo jetstack https://charts.jetstack.io
"jetstack" has been added to your repositories

End result is like in this gist

I am stuck in a loop. helmfile deps don't change the .lock, template is asking to read from lock.

[denist-huma]

I got problem with the OCI repo only, and I got a workaround for my case: to delete the existing helmfile.lock.

Are there plans to resolve this and improve the OCI support so the lock file does not have to be removed manually?
