### Error: error initializing: Looks like "https://kubernetes-charts.storage.googleapis.com" is not a valid chart repository or cannot be reached
As [announced in the official CNCF blogpost](https://www.cncf.io/blog/2020/10/07/important-reminder-for-all-helm-users-stable-incubator-repos-are-deprecated-and-all-images-are-changing-location/),
the stable Helm chart repository will be deprecated and removed on November 13th, 2020.
By this reason, you may encounter this problem after the period.
Some GitLab features had had a couple of dependencies on the stable chart as well, but
we've already changed them to use new official repositories (or [stable-archive repository maintained by GitLab](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cluster-integration/helm-stable-archive))
to mitigate the impact.
Here is [an example fix](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cluster-integration/auto-deploy-image/-/merge_requests/127) in Auto Deploy.
In Auto Deploy, `v1.0.6+` of `auto-deploy-image` no longer adds the deprecated stable repository to `helm` command.
If you use a custom chart and it relies on the deprecated stable repository,
please specify an older `auto-deploy-image` like the following example.
