   Sorry about this.
   
   At this point Solr 6.6 is over 4 years old and it's very hard to keep 
compatibility between 3-4 major versions of Solr.
   I think the best task for us to do, especially a day or so before the next 
release, is to make the documentation more clear and give better expectations 
about version compatibility. We already have a [Version Compatibility 
Matrix](https://apache.github.io/solr-operator/docs/upgrade-notes.html#version-compatibility-matrixes)
 that shows 6.6 is in a grey area of probably working for a lot of tasks, but 
not necessarily supported for everything.
   
   I've introduced a PR to point this matrix out instead of saying that all 
Docker images work. It also tempers expectations that not all Solr Operator 
functions are guaranteed to work for older versions.
   
   Anyways, I would recommend upgrading to Solr 7.x (or even 8.x, but that 
might be more of a stretch). CKAN requires 6.6, but since you are managing how 
Solr itself runs, is it ok to use 7.7 instead? Is CKAN just updating/querying, 
or is it adding configSets, and doing other admin tasks? If it's just using 
Solr as a black box (updating/querying), then the APIs are almost identical (if 
not identical) between 6.6 and 7.7. If it is actually doing configSet 
management, then yeah you might be stuck.
