kubectl kustomize --load-restrictor=LoadRestrictionsNone /path/to/kustomization/directory > output.yaml Not working

[kunalmehta-eve]

Describe the bug

We are using kubectl kustomize --load-restrictor=LoadRestrictionsNone /path/to/kustomization/directory > output.yaml to render the templates and validate them in our CI. Now as we have started using Image updater in our stack we are having difficulties to do this step. During validation it fails if we remove images section from Kustomization.yaml

Please suggest!
