Major Description of problem:
As per the following document, we should be able to install specific z-version by setting startingCSV and setting installPlanApproval to Manual in subscription resources:
- https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/openshift_container_platform/4.18/html/operators/administrator-tasks#olm-installing-operator-from-operatorhub-using-cli_olm-adding-operators-to-a-cluster
If you want to subscribe to a specific version of an Operator, set the startingCSV field to the desired version and set the installPlanApproval field to Manual to prevent the Operator from automatically upgrading if a later version exists in the catalog. For details, see the following "Example Subscription object with a specific starting Operator version".
However, this doesn't work in OCP/ODF 4.18.
When I installed ODF 4.18.5, it was automatically updated to 4.18.6.
The same behavior was observed on a customer's environment, not only my lab.
The issue issue also occurs when I install ODF on GUI, not only when installing it on CLI.

This issue doesn't occur on OCP/ODF 4.14.

I'm wondering if it's a new bug on ODF 4.18 or some new versions.
At least, we need a workaround to install a specific old ODF z-version.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
OCP 4.18, ODF 4.18
How reproducible:
Try installing a specific old ODF z-version
Steps to Reproduce:
Please take a look at the above logs
Actual results:
Even if we try installing a specific old ODF z-version such as ODF 4.18.5, it is automatically and immediately updated to the latest z-version even though we don't approve the installplan of the latest z-version
Expected results:
A specific old ODF z-version can be installed
Additional info:
This issue was originally reported as the following ODF bug: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/DFBUGS-3657 I'm opening this new OLM bug ticket as per the discussion of the above ticket.
