Why
The chart schema accepts fully-qualified executor class paths in
executor, and the chart writes that value directly into Airflow config.Airflow runtime also treats fully-qualified executor paths as valid, but the po launcher RoleBindings only matched short executor names such as
CeleryExecutorandKubernetesExecutor.As a result, valid configurations like
airflow.providers.celery.executors.celery_executor.CeleryExecutorcouldmiss the expected scheduler or worker subjects in the generated RoleBinding,
which breaks the RBAC needed to launch pods or jobs.
