Unable to disable version check with (new) `global.checkNewVersion` value

[z0rc]

Welcome!

What version of the Traefik's Helm Chart are you using?

36.1.0

What version of Traefik are you using?

3.4.1

What did you expect to happen ?

Setting value global.checkNewVersion=false should disable actual check.

What did you notice instead ?

Traefik still performs new version check.

What are your values ?

global:
  checkNewVersion: false

Additional Information

Introduced at https://github.com/traefik/traefik-helm-chart/pull/1436, default global.checkNewVersion=true. When flipping this value to false, the chart removes --global.checkNewVersion from list of container args. But according to https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/reference/static-configuration/cli/ --global.checknewversion is true by default, so Traefik still attempts to perform version check.

Thanks for your report! I do agree this would be a fine addition to the chart, to allow for easier setting to false of this flag. A PR to implement this would be very much welcome.

As a workaround, or more precisely the only way this can be achieved and already could be achieved prior to #1436, you can use the following values:

additionalArguments:
  - --global.checkNewVersion=false

Ah yes, that's right. We should do like for prometheus boolean in the code.

Hey :) Will this be tackled soon, or should I apply the workaround? Because the same issue appears to apply to sendAnonymousUsage.
