I am trying to use Artifactory as a front for our Helm Charts. I have the following set up:

• helm-remote-stable : stable community Helm Charts
• helm-local-stable : stable company Helm Charts
• helm-stable: virtual repo with both of the above as upstreams

What's supposed to be happening is that the helm-stable virtual repo manages merging the two upstream index.yaml files.

However, I am getting the following exception in the logs:

2018-03-20 18:58:04,483 [art-exec-276943] [ERROR] (o.a.a.h.r.m.HelmVirtualMerger:194) - Couldn't read index file in remote repository helm-remote-stable : (was com.github.zafarkhaja.semver.UnexpectedCharacterException) (through reference chain: org.jfrog.repomd.helm.model.HelmIndexYamlMetadata["entries"]->java.util.LinkedHashMap["grafana"]->java.util.TreeSet[6])

It looks like Artifactory is trying to enforce semver through some library and it's not parsing the community index.yaml file. This breaks the entire feature of the product.

Here's what's breaking from the community index.yaml:

Please note the version: "0.6" which borking the entire thing.

Any idea on how to get around this? I am using the Artifactory cloud offering.
