kamel cli output redirection doesn't work for some commands

[vsokolovskii]

Cobra function cmd.SetOut() does not redirect output for some commands.

for command output redirection this function is used

camel-k/e2e/support/test_support.go

Line 1331 in d9230bd

func GetOutputString(command *cobra.Command) string {

redirection works fine for kamel get kamel kit but the output of commands kamel describe kamel help kamel dump kamel version is not being redirected to the given io.Writer

Redirection works for all commands if you set the external kamel binary to e.g 1.4.0

Yeah, unfortunately I've noticed this as well. A simple strategy is to look for fmt.Print... used along the cmd package and replace with the cmd.OutOrStdout() related usage.
