, also known as `registry+v1` bundles. Additionally, the bundled operator, or cluster extension:

* **must** support installation via the `AllNamespaces`, `SingleNamespace`, or `OwnNamespace` install modes.
* **must** support installation via the `AllNamespaces` install mode.
* Note that `AllNamespaces` is the recommended install mode. OLM v1 supports `SingleNamespace` and `OwnNamespace` modes for `registry+v1` bundles for backwards compatibility with OLM v0, but these are not recommended install modes as there is a [hard limitation](https://operator-framework.github.io/operator-controller/project/olmv1_design_decisions/#do-not-fight-kubernetes) of only one instance of a given CRD in the cluster.
* **must not** declare dependencies using any of the following file-based catalog properties:
* `olm.gvk.required`
* `olm.package.required`
