breaking_changes:
- Parts of this collection do not work with ansible-core 2.11 on Python 3.12+.
Please either upgrade to ansible-core 2.12+, or use Python 3.11 or earlier
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/3988).
- The symbolic links used to implement flatmapping for all modules were removed
and replaced by ``meta/runtime.yml`` redirects. This effectively breaks compatibility
with Ansible 2.9 for all modules (without using their "long" names, which
is discouraged and which can change without previous notice since they are
considered an implementation detail) (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4548).
- a_module test plugin - remove Ansible 2.9 compatibility code (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4548).
- archive - remove Ansible 2.9 compatibility code (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4548).
- git_config - remove Ansible 2.9 and early ansible-base 2.10 compatibility
code (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4548).

- path_join filter plugin shim - remove Ansible 2.9 compatibility code (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4548).
- redis cache plugin - remove Ansible 2.9 compatibility code (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4548).
bugfixes:

instead of the deprecated Python standard library ``distutils`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/3936).
- a_module test plugin - fix crash when testing a module name that was tombstoned
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/3660).

a hyphen (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4044,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4052).

on Alpine linux (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4288,

environment scopes. Due this change, the return value ``project_variable``

(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/3419).
- keycloak - fix parameters types for ``defaultDefaultClientScopes`` and ``defaultOptionalClientScopes``

Fixes the regex for ``ss`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4092).

with ``+`` to preserve behavior of older versions of this module (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/3665).

with Ansible's ``get_bin_path`` to find the ``lxc`` executable (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/3934).
- 'lxd inventory plugin - do not crash if OS and release metadata are not present
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4351).
'

(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4043).'

packages (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4464).
- pacman - make sure that ``packages`` is always returned when ``name`` or ``upgrade``
is specified, also if nothing is done (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4329).
- pacman - when the ``update_cache`` option is combined with another option
such as ``upgrade``, report ``changed`` based on the actions performed by
the latter option. This was the behavior in community.general 4.4.0 and before.
In community.general 4.5.0, a task combining these options would always report
``changed`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4318).

as documented in the module (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4078).

with Ansible's ``get_bin_path`` to find the ``say`` resp. ``espeak`` executables
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/3934).
- scaleway_user_data - fix double-quote added where no double-quote is needed
to user data in scaleway's server (``Content-type`` -> ``Content-Type``) (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/3940).

with Ansible's ``get_bin_path`` to find the executable (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/3934).
- zypper - fixed bug that caused zypper to always report [ok] and do nothing
on ``state=present`` when all packages in ``name`` had a version specification
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4371, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4421).
deprecated_features:
- gem - the default of the ``norc`` option has been deprecated and will change
to ``true`` in community.general 6.0.0. Explicitly specify a value to avoid
a deprecation warning (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4517).
- mail callback plugin - not specifying ``sender`` is deprecated and will be
disallowed in community.general 6.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4140).
- module_helper module utils - deprecated the attribute ``ModuleHelper.VarDict``
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/3801).
- nmcli - deprecate default hairpin mode for a bridge. This so we can change
it to ``false`` in community.general 7.0.0, as this is also the default in
``nmcli`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4334).
- 'pacman - from community.general 5.0.0 on, the ``changed`` status of ``update_cache``
will no longer be ignored if ``name`` or ``upgrade`` is specified. To keep
the old behavior, add something like ``register: result`` and ``changed_when:
result.packages | length > 0`` to your task (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4329).'
- proxmox inventory plugin - the current default ``true`` of the ``want_proxmox_nodes_ansible_host``
option has been deprecated. The default will change to ``false`` in community.general
6.0.0. To keep the current behavior, explicitly set ``want_proxmox_nodes_ansible_host``
to ``true`` in your inventory configuration. We suggest to already switch
to the new behavior by explicitly setting it to ``false``, and by using ``compose:``
to set ``ansible_host`` to the correct value. See the examples in the plugin
documentation for details (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4466).
- vmadm - deprecated module parameter ``debug`` that was not used anywhere (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4580).
known_issues:
- pacman - ``update_cache`` cannot differentiate between up to date and outdated
package lists and will report ``changed`` in both situations (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4318).
- pacman - binaries specified in the ``executable`` parameter must support ``--print-format``
in order to be used by this module. In particular, AUR helper ``yay`` is known
not to currently support it (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4312).
major_changes:
- The community.general collection no longer supports Ansible 2.9 and ansible-base
2.10. While we take no active measures to prevent usage, we will remove a
lot of compatibility code and other compatility measures that will effectively
prevent using most content from this collection with Ansible 2.9, and some
content of this collection with ansible-base 2.10. Both Ansible 2.9 and ansible-base
2.10 will very soon be End of Life and if you are still using them, you should
consider upgrading to ansible-core 2.11 or later as soon as possible (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4548).
minor_changes:
- Avoid internal ansible-core module_utils in favor of equivalent public API
available since at least Ansible 2.9. This fixes some instances added since
the last time this was fixed (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4232).
- Remove vendored copy of ``distutils.version`` in favor of vendored copy included
with ansible-core 2.12+. For ansible-core 2.11, uses ``distutils.version``
for Python < 3.12. There is no support for ansible-core 2.11 with Python 3.12+
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/3988).
- aix_filesystem - calling ``run_command`` with arguments as ``list`` instead
of ``str`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/3833).
- aix_lvg - calling ``run_command`` with arguments as ``list`` instead of ``str``
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/3834).
- alternatives - add ``state`` parameter, which provides control over whether
the alternative should be set as the active selection for its alternatives
group (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4543,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4557).

(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/3822).
