If running MetalLB v0.7.3 on k8s v1.18.2, metallb pods output the
following parsing error of v1.ServiceList:
$ kubectl logs controller-dbb46cf84-fw8h8 -n metallb-system
{
"caller":"reflector.go:205",
"level":"error",
"msg":"go.universe.tf/metallb/internal/k8s/k8s.go:231:
Failed to list *v1.Service: v1.ServiceList:
Items: []v1.Service: v1.Service: ObjectMeta:
v1.ObjectMeta: readObjectFieldAsBytes:
expect : after object field, parsing 1605
Then an external IP address is never allocated to the Service of
LoadBalancer type.
By updating MetalLB version to the latest v0.9[1] today, this issue
can be solved.
