The build job for the clusterresourceoverride-admission-operator is failing due to ineffective metadata updates in the preparation for the 4.18 release. The following errors have been logged:

2024-10-10 00:42:08,478 artcommonlib ERROR [containers/clusterresourceoverride-operator] Search `clusterresourceoverride-operator.v4.18.0` and replace was ineffective for clusterresourceoverride-operator
2024-10-10 00:42:08,529 artcommonlib ERROR [containers/clusterresourceoverride-operator] Search `version: 4.18.0` and replace was ineffective for clusterresourceoverride-operator
2024-10-10 00:42:08,584 artcommonlib ERROR [containers/clusterresourceoverride-operator] Search `olm.skipRange: ">=4.3.0 <4.18.0"` and replace was ineffective for clusterresourceoverride-operator

Proposed Solution:

Refer to the implementation in another project, specifically the PTP Operator, for a similar issue resolution. It is essential to carefully evaluate the differences between the projects before applying any changes to ensure compatibility and correctness.

Action Items:

• Review the error logs and identify the specific areas where the metadata update is failing.
• Compare the implementation in the PTP Operator to determine the necessary changes.
• Apply the relevant changes to the clusterresourceoverride-operator metadata.
• Test the build job post-implementation to ensure it passes successfully.
