useHelmInstall doesn't work outside the default namespace

I've tried Native Helm with the latest kotsadm v1.58.1 and it's broken with image pull secrets in non-default namespaces.

When kurl and kots are set to install an app called app-name in the custom namespace. A working non-native helm install (useHelmInstall: false) shows this secret in custom namespace: <app-name>-registry kubernetes.io/dockerconfigjson

When I add useHelmInstall: true to helmChart, that secret doesn't exist in the custom namespace, and it seems image pull secrets are only in the default namespace. The secret name changes as well: <app-name>-<namespace>-registry kubernetes.io/dockerconfigjson

Our kurl is set to:

kotsadm:
    applicationNamespace: custom

and our kots Application resource is set to:

additionalNamespaces:
    - '*'

Workaround

useHelmInstall: true works if we only use the default namespace, so we're rolling back our custom namespace install for now.

Hey Bret,

I see an internal story that resolved this issue in 1.59.0. Here's a link to the PR if you're interested: #2405
