- 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- newrelic_deployment - ``appname`` and ``environment`` are no longer valid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).

- 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).

6.1.0:
changes:
bugfixes:
- chroot connection plugin - add ``inventory_hostname`` to vars under ``remote_addr``.
This is needed for compatibility with ansible-core 2.13 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5570).
- cmd_runner module utils - fixed bug when handling default cases in ``cmd_runner_fmt.as_map()``
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5538).
- cmd_runner module utils - formatting arguments ``cmd_runner_fmt.as_fixed()``
was expecting an non-existing argument (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5538).
- keycloak_client_rolemapping - calculate ``proposed`` and ``after`` return
values properly (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5619).
- keycloak_client_rolemapping - remove only listed mappings with ``state=absent``
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5619).
- proxmox inventory plugin - fix bug while templating when using templates for
the ``url``, ``user``, ``password``, ``token_id``, or ``token_secret`` options
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5640).
- proxmox inventory plugin - handle tags delimited by semicolon instead of comma,
which happens from Proxmox 7.3 on (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5602).
- redhat_subscription - do not ignore ``consumer_name`` and other variables
if ``activationkey`` is specified (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/3486,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5627).
- redhat_subscription - do not pass arguments to ``subscription-manager register``
for things already configured; now a specified ``rhsm_baseurl`` is properly
set for subscription-manager (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5583).
- unixy callback plugin - fix plugin to work with ansible-core 2.14 by using
Ansible's configuration manager for handling options (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/5600).
- vdo - now uses ``yaml.safe_load()`` to parse command output instead of the
deprecated ``yaml.load()`` which is potentially unsafe. Using ``yaml.load()``
without explicitely setting a ``Loader=`` is also an error in pyYAML 6.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5632).
- vmadm - fix for index out of range error in ``get_vm_uuid`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5628).
deprecated_features:
- The ``sap`` modules ``sapcar_extract``, ``sap_task_list_execute``, and ``hana_query``,
will be removed from this collection in community.general 7.0.0 and replaced
with redirects to ``community.sap_libs``. If you want to continue using these
modules, make sure to also install ``community.sap_libs`` (it is part of the
Ansible package) (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5614).
minor_changes:
- cmd_runner module utils - ``cmd_runner_fmt.as_bool()`` can now take an extra
parameter to format when value is false (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5647).
- gconftool2 - refactor using ``ModuleHelper`` and ``CmdRunner`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5545).
- java_certs - add more detailed error output when extracting certificate from
PKCS12 fails (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5550).
- jenkins_plugin - refactor code to module util to fix sanity check (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5565).
- lxd_project - refactored code out to module utils to clear sanity check (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5549).
- nmap inventory plugin - add new options ``udp_scan``, ``icmp_timestamp``,
and ``dns_resolve`` for different types of scans (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5566).
- rax_scaling_group - refactored out code to the ``rax`` module utils to clear
the sanity check (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5563).
- redfish_command - add ``PerformRequestedOperations`` command to perform any
operations necessary to continue the update flow (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4276).
- redfish_command - add ``update_apply_time`` to ``SimpleUpdate`` command (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/3910).
- redfish_command - add ``update_status`` to output of ``SimpleUpdate`` command
to allow a user monitor the update in progress (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4276).
- redfish_info - add ``GetUpdateStatus`` command to check the progress of a
previous update request (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4276).
- redfish_utils module utils - added PUT (``put_request()``) functionality (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5490).
- slack - add option ``prepend_hash`` which allows to control whether a ``#``
is prepended to ``channel_id``. The current behavior (value ``auto``) is to
prepend ``#`` unless some specific prefixes are found. That list of prefixes
is incomplete, and there does not seem to exist a documented condition on
when exactly ``#`` must not be prepended. We recommend to explicitly set ``prepend_hash=always``
or ``prepend_hash=never`` to avoid any ambiguity (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5629).
- spotinst_aws_elastigroup - add ``elements`` attribute when missing in ``list``
parameters (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5553).
- ssh_config - add ``host_key_algorithms`` option (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5605).
- udm_share - added ``elements`` attribute to ``list`` type parameters (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5557).
- udm_user - add ``elements`` attribute when missing in ``list`` parameters
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/5559).
