The rebase script updates the kubernetes version based on the "pod" image dependency, but that dependency is not always updated throughout a release. That means, for example, that while OCP is using 1.27.4 today MicroShift is still on 1.27.1.

4.14

Always

1. Look at the k8s.io/kubernetes dependency in go.mod
2.
3.

$ grep k8s.io/kubernetes 
go.mod	k8s.io/kubernetes v1.27.1

The version should be 1.27.1

The openshift-apiserver typically updates more often, so we could take the kubernetes dependency from it. This is likely to require special coding in the rebase script because MicroShift does not currently depend on the API server.

We may be able to find another component to use.

We could even investigate just updating to HEAD of openshift/kubernetes directly, although that might be risky if OCP is not also using that same version, so it would be better to track *something* in OCP.
