 v6.0.0-a1
 =========
 Release Summary
 ---------------
 This is a pre-release for the upcoming 6.0.0 major release. The main objective of this pre-release is to make it possible to test the large stuctural changes by flattening the directory structure. See the corresponding entry in the changelog for details.
 Major Changes
 -------------
 - The internal structure of the collection was changed for modules and action plugins. These no longer live in a directory hierarchy ordered by topic, but instead are now all in a single (flat) directory. This has no impact on users *assuming they did not use internal FQCNs*. These will still work, but result in deprecation warnings. They were never officially supported and thus the redirects are kept as a courtsey, and this is not labelled as a breaking change. Note that for example the Ansible VScode plugin started recommending these internal names. If you followed its recommendation, you will now have to change back to the short names to avoid deprecation warnings, and potential errors in the future as these redirects will be removed in community.general 9.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5461).
 - newrelic_deployment - removed New Relic v1 API, added support for v2 API (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5341).

  6.0.0-a1:
    changes:
      breaking_changes:
      - newrelic_deployment - ``revision`` is required for v2 API (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5341).
      bugfixes:
      - Include ``PSF-license.txt`` file for ``plugins/module_utils/_mount.py``.
      - Include ``simplified_bsd.txt`` license file for various module utils, the
        ``lxca_common`` docs fragment, and the ``utm_utils`` unit tests.
      - alternatives - do not set the priority if the priority was not set by the
        user (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4810).
      - alternatives - only pass subcommands when they are specified as module arguments
        (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4803, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4804,
        https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4836).
      - alternatives - when ``subcommands`` is specified, ``link`` must be given for
        every subcommand. This was already mentioned in the documentation, but not
        enforced by the code (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4836).
      - apache2_mod_proxy - avoid crash when reporting inability to parse balancer_member_page
        HTML caused by using an undefined variable in the error message (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5111).
      - archive - avoid crash when ``lzma`` is not present and ``format`` is not ``xz``
        (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5393).
      - cmd_runner module utils - fix bug caused by using the ``command`` variable
        instead of ``self.command`` when looking for binary path (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4903).
      - consul - fixed bug introduced in PR 4590 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4680).
      - credstash lookup plugin - pass plugin options to credstash for all terms,
        not just for the first (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5440).
      - dig lookup plugin - add option to return empty result without empty strings,
        and return empty list instead of ``NXDOMAIN`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5439,
        https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/5428).
      - dig lookup plugin - fix evaluation of falsy values for boolean parameters
        ``fail_on_error`` and ``retry_servfail`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5129).
      - dnsimple_info - correctly report missing library as ``requests`` and not ``another_library``
        (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5111).

        and return empty list instead of ``NXDOMAIN`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5457,

      - ArgFormat module utils - deprecated along ``CmdMixin``, in favor of the ``cmd_runner_fmt``
        module util (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5370).
      - CmdMixin module utils - deprecated in favor of the ``CmdRunner`` module util
        (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5370).
      - CmdModuleHelper module utils - deprecated in favor of the ``CmdRunner`` module
        util (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5370).
      - CmdStateModuleHelper module utils - deprecated in favor of the ``CmdRunner``
        module util (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5370).
      - cmd_runner module utils - deprecated ``fmt`` in favour of ``cmd_runner_fmt``
        as the parameter format object (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4777).
      - django_manage - support for Django releases older than 4.1 has been deprecated
        and will be removed in community.general 9.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5400).
      - django_manage - support for the commands ``cleanup``, ``syncdb`` and ``validate``
        that have been deprecated in Django long time ago will be removed in community.general
        9.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5400).
      - django_manage - the behavior of "creating the virtual environment when missing"
        is being deprecated and will be removed in community.general version 9.0.0
        (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5405).
      - gconftool2 - deprecates ``state=get`` in favor of using the module ``gconftool2_info``
        (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4778).
      - lxc_container - the module will no longer make any effort to support Python
        2 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5304).
      - newrelic_deployment - ``appname`` and ``environment`` are no longer valid
        options in the v2 API. They will be removed in community.general 7.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5341).
      - proxmox - deprecated the current ``unprivileged`` default value, will be changed
        to ``true`` in community.general 7.0.0 (https://github.com/pull/5224).
      - xfconf - deprecated parameter ``disable_facts``, as since version 4.0.0 it
        only allows value ``true`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4520).
      major_changes:
      - The internal structure of the collection was changed for modules and action
        plugins. These no longer live in a directory hierarchy ordered by topic, but
        instead are now all in a single (flat) directory. This has no impact on users
        *assuming they did not use internal FQCNs*. These will still work, but result
        in deprecation warnings. They were never officially supported and thus the
        redirects are kept as a courtsey, and this is not labelled as a breaking change.
        Note that for example the Ansible VScode plugin started recommending these
        internal names. If you followed its recommendation, you will now have to change
        back to the short names to avoid deprecation warnings, and potential errors
        in the future as these redirects will be removed in community.general 9.0.0
        (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5461).
      - newrelic_deployment - removed New Relic v1 API, added support for v2 API (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5341).
      minor_changes:
      - Added MIT license as ``LICENSES/MIT.txt`` for tests/unit/plugins/modules/packaging/language/test_gem.py
        (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5065).
      - All software licenses are now in the ``LICENSES/`` directory of the collection
        root (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5065,
        https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5079, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5080,

        except for the changelog fragments (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5138).
      - ali_instance - minor refactor when checking for installed dependency (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5240).

      - alternatives - add ``subcommands`` parameter (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4654).
      - ansible_galaxy_install - minor refactoring using latest ``ModuleHelper`` updates
