Workaround: downgrade helm and tiller versions. I downgraded all the way to 2.14.3 but that was probably not necessary; I just happened to know that version would work for me.

Below are versions etc of a system exhibiting the same behaviour as in the question:

helm version:

Client: &version.Version{SemVer:"v2.16.4", GitCommit:"5e135cc465d4231d9bfe2c5a43fd2978ef527e83", GitTreeState:"clean"}
Server: &version.Version{SemVer:"v2.16.4", GitCommit:"5e135cc465d4231d9bfe2c5a43fd2978ef527e83", GitTreeState:"clean"}

kubectl version:

Client Version: version.Info{Major:"1", Minor:"17", GitVersion:"v1.17.3", GitCommit:"06ad960bfd03b39c8310aaf92d1e7c12ce618213", GitTreeState:"clean", BuildDate:"2020-02-11T18:14:22Z", GoVersion:"go1.13.6", Compiler:"gc", Platform:"linux/amd64"}
Server Version: version.Info{Major:"1", Minor:"14+", GitVersion:"v1.14.10-gke.24", GitCommit:"f2734800eba37df4400813ab9340886059d56105", GitTreeState:"clean", BuildDate:"2020-02-05T18:38:43Z", GoVersion:"go1.12.12b4", Compiler:"gc", Platform:"linux/amd64"}

tiller-deploy is running (1/1).

Installing any helm chart, locally or from stable, results in the error posted above.

The output above is from a gke cluster, but I got the same behaviour locally on minikube.

It is an issue with Helm 2.16.4: https://github.com/helm/helm/issues/7797

Upgrade Helm 2.16.5 will fix the problem
