The xpkg spec restricts Configuration packages to Configuration, CompositeResourceDefinition, and Composition objects only. MRAPs cannot be bundled in Configuration packages. Update docs to: - Explain that MRAPs are applied separately by cluster operators - Show correct approach using dependsOn in crossplane.yaml - Recommend documenting MRD requirements in package README - Align best practices section with this constraint Closes crossplane#1126 Signed-off-by: Moritz Schmitz von Hülst <mschmitzvonhuelst@gmail.com>
✅ Deploy Preview for crossplane ready!

There was a problem hiding this comment.
thanks for enhancing the documentation, but it is possible to add an MRAP to an configuration Package: https://github.com/crossplane/crossplane-runtime/blob/main/pkg/xpkg/lint.go#L75 thats the linter the cli is using - can you update your PR ?

Closes #1126
Problem
The MRAP docs claimed Configuration packages can include MRAPs, but the xpkg spec restricts Configuration packages to Configuration, CompositeResourceDefinition, and Composition objects only.
Solution
dependsOnin crossplane.yaml for Provider dependenciesHow to Test
Review the updated MRAP documentation at the Configuration package activation section. Verify the changes align with the xpkg spec.
