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. Since community.general 11.0.0, these modules and plugins have been replaced by deprecated redirections to community.proxmox.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).

• 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).

• github_key - in check mode, a faulty call to `datetime.strftime(...)` was being made which generated an exception (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/9185).

• htpasswd - report changes when file permissions are adjusted (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/9485, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/9490).

• 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).

• 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).

• 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).
