changes:
breaking_changes:
- cpanm - the default of the ``mode`` option changed from ``compatibility``
to ``new`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8198).
- django_manage - the module now requires Django >= 4.1 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8198).
- django_manage - the module will now fail if ``virtualenv`` is specified but
no virtual environment exists at that location (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8198).
- redfish_command, redfish_config, redfish_info - change the default for ``timeout``
from 10 to 60 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8198).
bugfixes:
- aix_filesystem - fix ``_validate_vg`` not passing VG name to ``lsvg_cmd``
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8151).
- aix_filesystem - fix issue with empty list items in crfs logic and option
order (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8052).
- apt-rpm - the module did not upgrade packages if a newer version exists. Now
the package will be reinstalled if the candidate is newer than the installed
version (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7414).
- apt_rpm - when checking whether packages were installed after running ``apt-get
-y install <packages>``, only the last package name was checked (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8263).
- bitwarden_secrets_manager lookup plugin - implements retry with exponential
backoff to avoid lookup errors when Bitwardn's API rate limiting is encountered
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8230, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8238).
- 'cargo - fix idempotency issues when using a custom installation path for
packages (using the ``--path`` parameter). The initial installation runs fine,
but subsequent runs use the ``get_installed()`` function which did not check
the given installation location, before running ``cargo install``. This resulted
in a false ``changed`` state. Also the removal of packeges using ``state:
absent`` failed, as the installation check did not use the given parameter
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7970).'
- cloudflare_dns - fix Cloudflare lookup of SHFP records (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7652).
- consul_token - fix token creation without ``accessor_id`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8091).
- from_ini filter plugin - disabling interpolation of ``ConfigParser`` to allow
converting values with a ``%`` sign (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8183,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8185).
- gitlab_group_members - fix gitlab constants call in ``gitlab_group_members``
module (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7467).
- gitlab_issue - fix behavior to search GitLab issue, using ``search`` keyword
instead of ``title`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7846).
- gitlab_issue, gitlab_label, gitlab_milestone - avoid crash during version
comparison when the python-gitlab Python module is not installed (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8158).
- gitlab_project_members - fix gitlab constants call in ``gitlab_project_members``
module (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7467).
- gitlab_protected_branches - fix gitlab constants call in ``gitlab_protected_branches``
module (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7467).
- gitlab_runner - fix pagination when checking for existing runners (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7790).
- gitlab_user - fix gitlab constants call in ``gitlab_user`` module (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7467).
- haproxy - fix an issue where HAProxy could get stuck in DRAIN mode when the
backend was unreachable (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8092).
- homebrew - detect already installed formulae and casks using JSON output from
``brew info`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/864).
- homebrew - error returned from brew command was ignored and tried to parse
empty JSON. Fix now checks for an error and raises it to give accurate error
message to users (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8047).
- incus connection plugin - treats ``inventory_hostname`` as a variable instead
of a literal in remote connections (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7874).
- interface_files - also consider ``address_family`` when changing ``option=method``
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7610, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7612).
- inventory plugins - add unsafe wrapper to avoid marking strings that do not
contain ``{`` or ``}`` as unsafe, to work around a bug in AWX ((https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8212,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8225).
- ipa - fix get version regex in IPA module_utils (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8175).
- ipa_hbacrule - the module uses a string for ``ipaenabledflag`` for new FreeIPA
versions while the returned value is a boolean (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7880).
- ipa_otptoken - the module expect ``ipatokendisabled`` as string but the ``ipatokendisabled``
value is returned as a boolean (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7795).
- ipa_sudorule - the module uses a string for ``ipaenabledflag`` for new FreeIPA
versions while the returned value is a boolean (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7880).
- iptables_state - fix idempotency issues when restoring incomplete iptables
dumps (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8029).
- irc - replace ``ssl.wrap_socket`` that was removed from Python 3.12 with code
for creating a proper SSL context (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7542).
- keycloak_* - fix Keycloak API client to quote ``/`` properly (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7641).
- keycloak_authz_permission - resource payload variable for scope-based permission
was constructed as a string, when it needs to be a list, even for a single
item (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7151).
- keycloak_client - add sorted ``defaultClientScopes`` and ``optionalClientScopes``
to normalizations (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8223).
- keycloak_client - fixes issue when metadata is provided in desired state when
task is in check mode (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/1226,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7881).
- keycloak_identity_provider - ``mappers`` processing was not idempotent if
the mappers configuration list had not been sorted by name (in ascending order).
Fix resolves the issue by sorting mappers in the desired state using the same
key which is used for obtaining existing state (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7418).
- keycloak_identity_provider - it was not possible to reconfigure (add, remove)
``mappers`` once they were created initially. Removal was ignored, adding
new ones resulted in dropping the pre-existing unmodified mappers. Fix resolves
the issue by supplying correct input to the internal update call (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7418).
- keycloak_realm - add normalizations for ``enabledEventTypes`` and ``supportedLocales``
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8224).
- keycloak_user - when ``force`` is set, but user does not exist, do not try
to delete it (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7696).
- keycloak_user_federation - fix diff of empty ``krbPrincipalAttribute`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8320).
- ldap - previously the order number (if present) was expected to follow an
equals sign in the DN. This makes it so the order number string is identified
correctly anywhere within the DN (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7646).
- linode inventory plugin - add descriptive error message for linode inventory
plugin (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8133).
- log_entries callback plugin - replace ``ssl.wrap_socket`` that was removed
from Python 3.12 with code for creating a proper SSL context (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7542).
- lvol - test for output messages in both ``stdout`` and ``stderr`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7601,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7182).
- 'merge_variables lookup plugin - fixing cross host merge: providing access
to foreign hosts variables to the perspective of the host that is performing
the merge (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8303).'
- modprobe - listing modules files or modprobe files could trigger a FileNotFoundError
if ``/etc/modprobe.d`` or ``/etc/modules-load.d`` did not exist. Relevant
functions now return empty lists if the directories do not exist to avoid
crashing the module (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7717).
- mssql_script - make the module work with Python 2 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7818,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7821).
- nmcli - fix ``connection.slave-type`` wired to ``bond`` and not with parameter
``slave_type`` in case of connection type ``wifi`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7389).
- ocapi_utils, oci_utils, redfish_utils module utils - replace ``type()`` calls
with ``isinstance()`` calls (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7501).
- onepassword lookup plugin - failed for fields that were in sections and had
uppercase letters in the label/ID. Field lookups are now case insensitive
in all cases (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7919).
- onepassword lookup plugin - field and section titles are now case insensitive
when using op CLI version two or later. This matches the behavior of version
one (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7564).
- opentelemetry callback plugin - close spans always (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8367).
- opentelemetry callback plugin - honour the ``disable_logs`` option to avoid
storing task results since they are not used regardless (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8373).
- pacemaker_cluster - actually implement check mode, which the module claims
to support. This means that until now the module also did changes in check
mode (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8081).
- pam_limits - when the file does not exist, do not create it in check mode
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8050, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8057).
- pipx module utils - change the CLI argument formatter for the ``pip_args``
parameter (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7497,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7506).
- pkgin - pkgin (pkgsrc package manager used by SmartOS) raises erratic exceptions
and spurious ``changed=true`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7971).
- proxmox - fix updating a container config if the setting does not already
exist (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7872).
- proxmox_kvm - fixed status check getting from node-specific API endpoint (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7817).
- proxmox_kvm - running ``state=template`` will first check whether VM is already
a template (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7792).
- proxmox_pool_member - absent state for type VM did not delete VMs from the
pools (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7464).
- puppet - add option ``environment_lang`` to set the environment language encoding.
Defaults to lang ``C``. It is recommended to set it to ``C.UTF-8`` or ``en_US.UTF-8``
depending on what is available on your system. (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8000)
- redfish_command - fix usage of message parsing in ``SimpleUpdate`` and ``MultipartHTTPPushUpdate``
commands to treat the lack of a ``MessageId`` as no message (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7465,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7471).
- redfish_info - allow for a GET operation invoked by ``GetUpdateStatus`` to
allow for an empty response body for cases where a service returns 204 No
Content (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8003).
- redfish_info - correct uncaught exception when attempting to retrieve ``Chassis``
information (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7952).
- 'redhat_subscription - use the D-Bus registration on RHEL 7 only on 7.4 and
greater; older versions of RHEL 7 do not have it
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7622,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7624).
'
- riak - support ``riak admin`` sub-command in newer Riak KV versions beside
the legacy ``riak-admin`` main command (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8211).
- statusio_maintenance - fix error caused by incorrectly formed API data payload.
Was raising "Failed to create maintenance HTTP Error 400 Bad Request" caused
by bad data type for date/time and deprecated dict keys (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7754).
- terraform - fix multiline string handling in complex variables (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7535).
- to_ini filter plugin - disabling interpolation of ``ConfigParser`` to allow
converting values with a ``%`` sign (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8183,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8185).
- xml - make module work with lxml 5.1.1, which removed some internals that
the module was relying on (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8169).
deprecated_features:
- MH DependencyCtxMgr module_utils - deprecate ``module_utils.mh.mixin.deps.DependencyCtxMgr``
in favour of ``module_utils.deps`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8280).
- ModuleHelper module_utils - deprecate ``plugins.module_utils.module_helper.AnsibleModule``
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8280).
- ModuleHelper module_utils - deprecate ``plugins.module_utils.module_helper.DependencyCtxMgr``
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8280).
- ModuleHelper module_utils - deprecate ``plugins.module_utils.module_helper.StateMixin``
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8280).
- ModuleHelper module_utils - deprecate ``plugins.module_utils.module_helper.VarDict,``
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8280).
- ModuleHelper module_utils - deprecate ``plugins.module_utils.module_helper.VarMeta``
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8280).
- ModuleHelper module_utils - deprecate ``plugins.module_utils.module_helper.VarsMixin``
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8280).
- ModuleHelper module_utils - deprecate use of ``VarsMixin`` in favor of using
the ``VardDict`` module_utils (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8226).
- ModuleHelper vars module_utils - bump deprecation of ``VarMeta``, ``VarDict``
and ``VarsMixin`` to version 11.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8226).
- apt_rpm - the behavior of ``state=present`` and ``state=installed`` is deprecated
and will change in community.general 11.0.0. Right now the module will upgrade
a package to the latest version if one of these two states is used. You should
explicitly use ``state=latest`` if you want this behavior, and switch to ``state=present_not_latest``
if you do not want to upgrade the package if it is already installed. In community.general
11.0.0 the behavior of ``state=present`` and ``state=installed`` will change
to that of ``state=present_not_latest`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8217,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8285).
- consul_acl - the module has been deprecated and will be removed in community.general
10.0.0. ``consul_token`` and ``consul_policy`` can be used instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7901).
- django_manage - the ``ack_venv_creation_deprecation`` option has no more effect
and will be removed from community.general 11.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8198).
- gitlab modules - the basic auth method on GitLab API have been deprecated
and will be removed in community.general 10.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8383).
- hipchat callback plugin - the hipchat service has been discontinued and the
self-hosted variant has been End of Life since 2020. The callback plugin is
therefore deprecated and will be removed from community.general 10.0.0 if
nobody provides compelling reasons to still keep it (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8184,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8189).
- irc - the defaults ``false`` for ``use_tls`` and ``validate_certs`` have been
deprecated and will change to ``true`` in community.general 10.0.0 to improve
security. You can already improve security now by explicitly setting them
to ``true``. Specifying values now disables the deprecation warning (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7578).
minor_changes:
- PythonRunner module utils - specialisation of ``CmdRunner`` to execute Python
scripts (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8289).
- Use offset-aware ``datetime.datetime`` objects (with timezone UTC) instead
of offset-naive UTC timestamps, which are deprecated in Python 3.12 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8222).
- aix_lvol - refactor module to pass list of arguments to ``module.run_command()``
instead of relying on interpretation by a shell (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8264).
- 'apt_rpm - add new states ``latest`` and ``present_not_latest``. The value
``latest`` is equivalent to the current behavior of ``present``, which will
upgrade a package if a newer version exists. ``present_not_latest`` does what
most users would expect ``present`` to do: it does not upgrade if the package
is already installed. The current behavior of ``present`` will be deprecated
in a later version, and eventually changed to that of ``present_not_latest``
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8217, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8247).'
- apt_rpm - refactor module to pass list of arguments to ``module.run_command()``
instead of relying on interpretation by a shell (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8264).
- bitwarden lookup plugin - add ``bw_session`` option, to pass session key instead
of reading from env (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7994).
- bitwarden lookup plugin - add support to filter by organization ID (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8188).
- bitwarden lookup plugin - allows to fetch all records of a given collection
ID, by allowing to pass an empty value for ``search_value`` when ``collection_id``
is provided (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8013).
- bitwarden lookup plugin - when looking for items using an item ID, the item
is now accessed directly with ``bw get item`` instead of searching through
all items. This doubles the lookup speed (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7468).
- btrfs_subvolume - refactor module to pass list of arguments to ``module.run_command()``
instead of relying on interpretation by a shell (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8264).
- cmd_runner module_utils - add validation for minimum and maximum length in
the value passed to ``cmd_runner_fmt.as_list()`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8288).
- consul_auth_method, consul_binding_rule, consul_policy, consul_role, consul_session,
consul_token - added action group ``community.general.consul`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7897).
- consul_policy - added support for diff and check mode (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7878).
- consul_policy, consul_role, consul_session - removed dependency on ``requests``
and factored out common parts (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7826,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7878).
- consul_role - ``node_identities`` now expects a ``node_name`` option to match
the Consul API, the old ``name`` is still supported as alias (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7878).
- consul_role - ``service_identities`` now expects a ``service_name`` option
to match the Consul API, the old ``name`` is still supported as alias (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7878).
- consul_role - added support for diff mode (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7878).
- consul_role - added support for templated policies (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7878).
- elastic callback plugin - close elastic client to not leak resources (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7517).
- filesystem - add bcachefs support (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8126).
- gandi_livedns - adds support for personal access tokens (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7639,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8337).
- gconftool2 - use ``ModuleHelper`` with ``VarDict`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8226).
- git_config - allow multiple git configs for the same name with the new ``add_mode``
option (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7260).
- git_config - the ``after`` and ``before`` fields in the ``diff`` of the return
value can be a list instead of a string in case more configs with the same
key are affected (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7260).
- git_config - when a value is unset, all configs with the same key are unset
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7260).
- gitlab modules - add ``ca_path`` option (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7472).
- gitlab modules - remove duplicate ``gitlab`` package check (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7486).
- gitlab_deploy_key, gitlab_group_members, gitlab_group_variable, gitlab_hook,
gitlab_instance_variable, gitlab_project_badge, gitlab_project_variable, gitlab_user
- improve API pagination and compatibility with different versions of ``python-gitlab``
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7790).
- gitlab_hook - adds ``releases_events`` parameter for supporting Releases events
triggers on GitLab hooks (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7956).
- gitlab_runner - add support for new runner creation workflow (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7199).
- homebrew - adds ``force_formula`` parameter to disambiguate a formula from
a cask of the same name (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8274).
- homebrew, homebrew_cask - refactor common argument validation logic into a
dedicated ``homebrew`` module utils (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8323,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8324).
- icinga2 inventory plugin - add Jinja2 templating support to ``url``, ``user``,
and ``password`` paramenters (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/7074,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7996).
- icinga2 inventory plugin - adds new parameter ``group_by_hostgroups`` in order
to make grouping by Icinga2 hostgroups optional (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7998).
- ini_file - add an optional parameter ``section_has_values``. If the target
ini file contains more than one ``section``, use ``section_has_values`` to
specify which one should be updated (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7505).
- ini_file - support optional spaces between section names and their surrounding
brackets (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8075).
- installp - refactor module to pass list of arguments to ``module.run_command()``
instead of relying on interpretation by a shell (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8264).
- ipa_config - adds ``passkey`` choice to ``ipauserauthtype`` parameter's choices
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7588).
- ipa_dnsrecord - adds ability to manage NS record types (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7737).
- ipa_pwpolicy - refactor module and exchange a sequence ``if`` statements with
a ``for`` loop (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7723).
- ipa_pwpolicy - update module to support ``maxrepeat``, ``maxsequence``, ``dictcheck``,
``usercheck``, ``gracelimit`` parameters in FreeIPA password policies (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7723).

- ipa_user - adds ``idp`` and ``passkey`` choice to ``ipauserauthtype`` parameter's
choices (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7589).
- irc - add ``validate_certs`` option, and rename ``use_ssl`` to ``use_tls``,
while keeping ``use_ssl`` as an alias. The default value for ``validate_certs``
is ``false`` for backwards compatibility. We recommend to every user of this
module to explicitly set ``use_tls=true`` and `validate_certs=true`` whenever
possible, especially when communicating to IRC servers over the internet (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7550).
- java_cert - add ``cert_content`` argument (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8153).
- java_cert - enable ``owner``, ``group``, ``mode``, and other generic file
arguments (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8116).
- kernel_blacklist - use ``ModuleHelper`` with ``VarDict`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8226).
- keycloak module utils - expose error message from Keycloak server for HTTP
errors in some specific situations (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7645).
- keycloak_client, keycloak_clientscope, keycloak_clienttemplate - added ``docker-v2``
protocol support, enhancing alignment with Keycloak's protocol options (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8215,

release_summary: This is release 9.0.0 of ``community.general``, released on
2024-05-20.
removed_features:
- The deprecated redirects for internal module names have been removed. These
internal redirects were extra-long FQCNs like ``community.general.packaging.os.apt_rpm``
that redirect to the short FQCN ``community.general.apt_rpm``. They were originally
needed to implement flatmapping; as various tooling started to recommend users
to use the long names flatmapping was removed from the collection and redirects
were added for users who already followed these incorrect recommendations
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7835).
- ansible_galaxy_install - the ``ack_ansible29`` and ``ack_min_ansiblecore211``
options have been removed. They no longer had any effect (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8198).
- cloudflare_dns - remove support for SPF records. These are no longer supported
by CloudFlare (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7782).
- django_manage - support for the ``command`` values ``cleanup``, ``syncdb``,
and ``validate`` were removed. Use ``clearsessions``, ``migrate``, and ``check``
instead, respectively (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8198).
- flowdock - this module relied on HTTPS APIs that do not exist anymore and
was thus removed (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8198).
- mh.mixins.deps module utils - the ``DependencyMixin`` has been removed. Use
the ``deps`` module utils instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8198).
- proxmox - the ``proxmox_default_behavior`` option has been removed (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8198).
- rax* modules, rax module utils, rax docs fragment - the Rackspace modules
relied on the deprecated package ``pyrax`` and were thus removed (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8198).
- redhat module utils - the classes ``Rhsm``, ``RhsmPool``, and ``RhsmPools``
have been removed (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8198).
- redhat_subscription - the alias ``autosubscribe`` of the ``auto_attach`` option
was removed (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8198).
- stackdriver - this module relied on HTTPS APIs that do not exist anymore and
was thus removed (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8198).
- webfaction_* modules - these modules relied on HTTPS APIs that do not exist
anymore and were thus removed (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8198).
security_fixes:
- cobbler, gitlab_runners, icinga2, linode, lxd, nmap, online, opennebula, proxmox,
scaleway, stackpath_compute, virtualbox, and xen_orchestra inventory plugin
- make sure all data received from the remote servers is marked as unsafe,
so remote code execution by obtaining texts that can be evaluated as templates
is not possible (https://www.die-welt.net/2024/03/remote-code-execution-in-ansible-dynamic-inventory-plugins/,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8098).
- keycloak_identity_provider - the client secret was not correctly sanitized
by the module. The return values ``proposed``, ``existing``, and ``end_state``,
as well as the diff, did contain the client secret unmasked (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8355).

release_date: '2024-05-27'
9.1.0:
changes:
bugfixes:
- git_config - fix behavior of ``state=absent`` if ``value`` is present (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8436,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8452).
- keycloak_realm - add normalizations for ``attributes`` and ``protocol_mappers``
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8496).
- launched - correctly report changed status in check mode (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8406).
- opennebula inventory plugin - fix invalid reference to IP when inventory runs
against NICs with no IPv4 address (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8489).
- opentelemetry callback - do not save the JSON response when using the ``ansible.builtin.uri``
module (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8430).
- opentelemetry callback - do not save the content response when using the ``ansible.builtin.slurp``
module (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8430).
- paman - do not fail if an empty list of packages has been provided and there
is nothing to do (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8514).
deprecated_features:
- CmdRunner module util - setting the value of the ``ignore_none`` parameter
within a ``CmdRunner`` context is deprecated and that feature should be removed
in community.general 12.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8479).
- git_config - the ``list_all`` option has been deprecated and will be removed
in community.general 11.0.0. Use the ``community.general.git_config_info``
module instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8453).
- git_config - using ``state=present`` without providing ``value`` is deprecated
and will be disallowed in community.general 11.0.0. Use the ``community.general.git_config_info``
module instead to read a value (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8453).
known_issues:
- homectl - the module does not work under Python 3.13 or newer, since it relies
on the removed ``crypt`` standard library module (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4691,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8497).
- udm_user - the module does not work under Python 3.13 or newer, since it relies
on the removed ``crypt`` standard library module (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4690,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8497).
minor_changes:
- CmdRunner module util - argument formats can be specified as plain functions
without calling ``cmd_runner_fmt.as_func()`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8479).
- ansible_galaxy_install - add upgrade feature (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8431,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8351).
- cargo - add option ``directory``, which allows source directory to be specified
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8480).
- cmd_runner module utils - add decorator ``cmd_runner_fmt.stack`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8415).

https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8441).

(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8471).
- redfish_command - add ``wait`` and ``wait_timeout`` options to allow a user
to block a command until a service is accessible after performing the requested
command (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8051,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8434).
- redfish_info - add command ``CheckAvailability`` to check if a service is
accessible (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8051,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8434).
