-Deprecated Features
--------------------
-

-
-Removed Features (previously deprecated)
-----------------------------------------
-
-- Dropped support for ansible-core 2.15. The collection now requires ansible-core 2.16 or newer. This means that on the controller, Python 3.10+ is required. On the target side, Python 2.7 and Python 3.6+ are supported (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10160, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10192).
-- The Proxmox content (modules and plugins) has been moved to the `new collection community.proxmox <https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.proxmox>`__. Since community.general 11.0.0, these modules and plugins have been replaced by deprecated redirections to community.proxmox. You need to explicitly install community.proxmox, for example with ``ansible-galaxy collection install community.proxmox``, or by installing a new enough version of the Ansible community package. We suggest to update your roles and playbooks to use the new FQCNs as soon as possible to avoid getting deprecation messages (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10110).
-- apt_rpm - the ``present`` and ``installed`` states are no longer equivalent to ``latest``, but to ``present_not_latest`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-- clc_* modules and doc fragment - the modules were removed since CenturyLink Cloud services went EOL in September 2023 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).

-- git_config - it is no longer allowed to use ``state=present`` with no value to read the config value. Use the ``community.general.git_config_info`` module instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-- git_config - the ``list_all`` option has been removed. Use the ``community.general.git_config_info`` module instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-- hipchat - the module was removed since the hipchat service has been discontinued and the self-hosted variant has been End of Life since 2020 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-- manifold lookup plugin - the plugin was removed since the company was acquired in 2021 and service was ceased afterwards (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-- mh.mixins.deps module utils - this module utils has been removed. Use the ``deps`` module utils instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-- mh.mixins.vars module utils - this module utils has been removed. Use ``VarDict`` from the ``vardict`` module utils instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-- mh.module_helper module utils - ``AnsibleModule`` and ``VarsMixin`` are no longer provided (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-- mh.module_helper module utils - ``VarDict`` is now imported from the ``vardict`` module utils and no longer from the removed ``mh.mixins.vars`` module utils (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-- mh.module_helper module utils - the attributes ``use_old_vardict`` and ``mute_vardict_deprecation`` from ``ModuleHelper`` have been removed. We suggest to remove them from your modules if you no longer support community.general < 11.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-- module_helper module utils - ``StateMixin``, ``DependencyCtxMgr``, ``VarMeta``, ``VarDict``, and ``VarsMixin`` are no longer provided (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-- pipx - module no longer supports ``pipx`` older than 1.7.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10137).
-- pipx_info - module no longer supports ``pipx`` older than 1.7.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10137).
-- profitbrick* modules - the modules were removed since the supporting library is unsupported since 2021 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-- redfish_utils module utils - the ``_init_session`` method has been removed (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).

-Security Fixes
---------------
-
-- keycloak_authentication - API calls did not properly set the ``priority`` during update resulting in incorrectly sorted authentication flows. This apparently only affects Keycloak 25 or newer (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9263).
-- keycloak_client - Sanitize ``saml.encryption.private.key`` so it does not show in the logs (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9621).
-
-Bugfixes
---------
-
-- apache2_mod_proxy - make compatible with Python 3 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9762).

-- keycloak_authentication - fix authentification config duplication for Keycloak < 26.2.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9987).
-- keycloak_client - fix and improve existing tests. The module showed a diff without actual changes, solved by improving the ``normalise_cr()`` function (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9644).
-- keycloak_client - fix diff by removing code that turns the attributes dict which contains additional settings into a list (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9077).
-- keycloak_client - fix the idempotency regression by normalizing the Keycloak response for ``after_client`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/9905, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9976).
-- keycloak_client - in check mode, detect whether the lists in before client (for example redirect URI list) contain items that the lists in the desired client do not contain (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9739).
-- keycloak_clientscope - fix diff and ``end_state`` by removing the code that turns the attributes dict, which contains additional config items, into a list (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9082).

-- onepassword_doc lookup plugin - ensure that 1Password Connect support also works for this plugin (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9625).
-- passwordstore lookup plugin - fix subkey creation even when ``create=false`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/9105, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9106).
-- pickle cache plugin - avoid extra JSON serialization with ansible-core >= 2.19 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10136).

-- redfish_utils module utils - Fix ``VerifyBiosAttributes`` command on multi system resource nodes (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9234).
-- redfish_utils module utils - remove undocumented default applytime (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9114).
-- redhat_subscription - do not try to unsubscribe (i.e. remove subscriptions)
-  when unregistering a system: newer versions of subscription-manager, as
-  available in EL 10 and Fedora 41+, do not support entitlements anymore, and
-  thus unsubscribing will fail
-  (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9578).
-- redhat_subscription - use the "enable_content" option (when available) when
-  registering using D-Bus, to ensure that subscription-manager enables the
-  content on registration; this is particular important on EL 10+ and Fedora
-  41+
-  (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9778).
-- reveal_ansible_type filter plugin and ansible_type test plugin - make compatible with ansible-core's Data Tagging feature (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9833).
-- rundeck_acl_policy - ensure that project ACLs are sent to the correct endpoint (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10097).
-- slack - fail if Slack API response is not OK with error message (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9198).
-- sudoers - display stdout and stderr raised while failed validation (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/9674, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9871).
-- sysrc - no longer always reporting ``changed=true`` when ``state=absent``. This fixes the method ``exists()`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/10004, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10005).
-- sysrc - split the output of ``sysrc -e -a`` on the first ``=`` only (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/10120, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10121).

-- yaml callback plugin - adjust to latest changes in ansible-core devel (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10212).
-- yaml callback plugin - use ansible-core internals to avoid breakage with Data Tagging (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9833).
-- yaml callback plugin - when using ansible-core 2.19.0b2 or newer, uses a new utility provided by ansible-core. This allows us to remove all hacks and vendored code that was part of the plugin for ansible-core versions with Data Tagging so far (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10242).
-- zfs - fix handling of multi-line values of user-defined ZFS properties (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/6264).
-- zfs_facts - parameter ``type`` now accepts multple values as documented (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/5909, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9697).
-- zypper_repository - make compatible with Python 3.12+ (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/10222, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10223).
-- zypper_repository - use ``metalink`` attribute to identify repositories without ``<url/>`` element (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/10224, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10225).
-
-Known Issues
-------------
-
-- reveal_ansible_type filter plugin and ansible_type test plugin - note that ansible-core's Data Tagging feature implements new aliases, such as ``_AnsibleTaggedStr`` for ``str``, ``_AnsibleTaggedInt`` for ``int``, and ``_AnsibleTaggedFloat`` for ``float`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9833).

-        - apache2_mod_proxy - passing the cluster's page as referer for the member's
-          pages. This makes the module actually work again for halfway modern Apache
-          versions. According to some comments founds on the net the referer was required

-          2.16 or newer. This means that on the controller, Python 3.10+ is required.
-          On the target side, Python 2.7 and Python 3.6+ are supported (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10160,
-          https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10192).
-        - The Proxmox content (modules and plugins) has been moved to the `new collection
-          community.proxmox <https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.proxmox>`__.
-          Since community.general 11.0.0, these modules and plugins have been replaced
-          by deprecated redirections to community.proxmox. You need to explicitly
-          install community.proxmox, for example with ``ansible-galaxy collection
-          install community.proxmox``, or by installing a new enough version of the
-          Ansible community package. We suggest to update your roles and playbooks
-          to use the new FQCNs as soon as possible to avoid getting deprecation messages
-          (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10110).
-        - apt_rpm - the ``present`` and ``installed`` states are no longer equivalent
-          to ``latest``, but to ``present_not_latest`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-        - clc_* modules and doc fragment - the modules were removed since CenturyLink
-          Cloud services went EOL in September 2023 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-        - django_manage - the ``ack_venv_creation_deprecation`` option has been removed.
-          It had no effect anymore anyway (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-        - git_config - it is no longer allowed to use ``state=present`` with no value
-          to read the config value. Use the ``community.general.git_config_info``
-          module instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-        - git_config - the ``list_all`` option has been removed. Use the ``community.general.git_config_info``
-          module instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-        - hipchat - the module was removed since the hipchat service has been discontinued
-          and the self-hosted variant has been End of Life since 2020 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-        - manifold lookup plugin - the plugin was removed since the company was acquired
-          in 2021 and service was ceased afterwards (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-        - mh.mixins.deps module utils - this module utils has been removed. Use the
-          ``deps`` module utils instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-        - mh.mixins.vars module utils - this module utils has been removed. Use ``VarDict``
-          from the ``vardict`` module utils instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-        - mh.module_helper module utils - ``AnsibleModule`` and ``VarsMixin`` are
-          no longer provided (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-        - mh.module_helper module utils - ``VarDict`` is now imported from the ``vardict``
-          module utils and no longer from the removed ``mh.mixins.vars`` module utils
-          (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-        - mh.module_helper module utils - the attributes ``use_old_vardict`` and ``mute_vardict_deprecation``
-          from ``ModuleHelper`` have been removed. We suggest to remove them from
-          your modules if you no longer support community.general < 11.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-        - module_helper module utils - ``StateMixin``, ``DependencyCtxMgr``, ``VarMeta``,
-          ``VarDict``, and ``VarsMixin`` are no longer provided (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-        - pipx - module no longer supports ``pipx`` older than 1.7.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10137).
-        - pipx_info - module no longer supports ``pipx`` older than 1.7.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10137).
-        - profitbrick* modules - the modules were removed since the supporting library
-          is unsupported since 2021 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-        - redfish_utils module utils - the ``_init_session`` method has been removed
-          (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-        - stackpath_compute inventory plugin - the plugin was removed since the company
-          and the service were sunset in June 2024 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10126).
-      security_fixes:
-        - keycloak_authentication - API calls did not properly set the ``priority``
-          during update resulting in incorrectly sorted authentication flows. This
-          apparently only affects Keycloak 25 or newer (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9263).
-        - keycloak_client - Sanitize ``saml.encryption.private.key`` so it does not
-          show in the logs (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9621).
