I'm using helm charts on minikube. I noticed that when executing helm uninstall
it does not delete the associated k8s components. Is this as expected ? if not how do I get it to delete the associated components. Ideally I want to just update certain components when I do an update, how do I get this done?

The standard Helm behavior on `helm update` is to only change what has changed; and the standard Kubernetes behavior is that resubmitting an identical object to one that already exists doesn't do anything. On the flip side, `helm delete` should in fact delete the cluster resources. Do you have a more complete example of a chart that's not behaving as you expect? – David Maze Jun 25 '21 at 02:03

Can you list k8s components associated with the release that did not get deleted when you run helm uninstall or share chart used so I can test it on my environment ? For more information on k8s component updates refer to [Automatically Roll Deployments](https://helm.sh/docs/howto/charts_tips_and_tricks/#automatically-roll-deployments) – Gellaboina Ashish Jun 29 '21 at 14:48
