I am getting helm error on running the command kapp deploy -a metrics-collection -f pasx/package-install-metrics-collection.yaml -y
Here is my package CRD

apiVersion: data.packaging.carvel.dev/v1alpha1
kind: Package
metadata:
  name: metrics.azure.io.1.2.0
spec:
  refName: metrics.azure.io
  version: 1.2.0
  releaseNotes: |
    Initial release of the metrics package
  valuesSchema:
    openAPIv3:
      nullable: true
      default: null
  template:
    spec:
      fetch:
      - helmChart:
          name: metrics
          version: 1.2.0
          repository:
            url: oci://<registry-host-name>/apps/
            secretRef:
              name: carvel-pull-secret
        path: metrics
      template:
      - helmTemplate:
          path: metrics/
          name: metrics
          namespace: metrics
      - kbld:
          paths:
          - metrics/.imgpkg/images.yml
          - '-'
      deploy:
      - kapp: {}

Error:

kapp: Error: waiting on reconcile packageinstall/metrics (packaging.carvel.dev/v1alpha1) namespace: default:
  Finished unsuccessfully (Reconcile failed:  (message: vendir: Error: Syncing directory '0':
  Syncing directory '.' with helm chart contents:
    Helm chart pull: exit status 1 (stderr: Error: unknown command "chart" for "helm"
Run 'helm --help' for usage.
)
))

The error is because helm chart pull command was deprecated in helm version 3.7.0 and replaced it with helm pull as per https://github.com/helm/helm/releases/tag/v3.7.0
