I just started encountering this issue the other day. Is there a workaround?

I also had the problem, I ended up sourcing the kubectl completion file by hand whenever I need it. I think it's on kube's side, but I'm not really sure though.

I mean, even if I use zsh's function completion (by setting the fpath variable and adding a path to zsh completions), I have this error
