-      We bump this here to get rid of a critical CVE in okio 1.15 which we get via kubernetes-client.
-      We tried understanding _why_ we get 1.15 as dependency:tree for kubernetes-client says we should be getting 1.17.6.
-      As we failed to understand this we did this short/medium term fix of adding an explicit dependency here which should override the one coming from kubernetes-client.
-      This can be removed again as soon as we get the proper version from kubernetes-client.
