ancestor: 2.0.0 releases: 3.0.0: changes: breaking_changes: - 'If you use Ansible 2.9 and these plugins or modules from this collection, community.general 3.0.0 results in errors when trying to use the DellEMC content by FQCN, like ``community.general.idrac_firmware``. Since Ansible 2.9 is not able to use redirections, you will have to adjust your playbooks and roles manually to use the new FQCNs (``dellemc.openmanage.idrac_firmware`` for the previous example) and to make sure that you have ``dellemc.openmanage`` installed. If you use ansible-base 2.10 or newer and did not install Ansible 4.0.0, but installed (and/or upgraded) community.general manually, you need to make sure to also install the ``dellemc.openmanage`` collection if you are using any of these plugins or modules. While ansible-base 2.10 or newer can use the redirects that community.general 3.0.0 adds, the collection they point to (such as dellemc.openmanage) must be installed for them to work. ' - gitlab_deploy_key - if for an already existing key title a different public key was given as parameter nothing happened, now this changed so that the public key is updated to the new value (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/1661). - java_keystore - instead of failing, now overwrites keystore if the alias (name) is changed. This was originally the intended behavior, but did not work due to a logic error. Make sure that your playbooks and roles do not depend on the old behavior of failing instead of overwriting (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/1671). - java_keystore - instead of failing, now overwrites keystore if the passphrase is changed.
