Change Logs

* Wed Mar 27 2024 Johannes Kastl <opensuse_buildservice@ojkastl.de>
- update to 2.16.5:
  https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/v2.16.5/changelogs/CHANGELOG-v2.16.rst
  * Minor Changes
  - ansible-test - Add a work-around for permission denied errors
    when using pytest >= 8 on multi-user systems with an
    installed version of ansible-test.
  * Bugfixes
  - Fix an issue when setting a plugin name from an unsafe source
    resulted in ValueError: unmarshallable object (#82708)
  - Harden python templates for respawn and ansiballz around str
    literal quoting
  - ansible-test - The libexpat package is automatically upgraded
    during remote bootstrapping to maintain compatibility with
    newer Python packages.
  - template - Fix error when templating an unsafe string which
    corresponds to an invalid type in Python (#82600).
  - winrm - does not hang when attempting to get process output
    when stdin write failed
* Sat Mar 16 2024 Johannes Kastl <opensuse_buildservice@ojkastl.de>

  https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/v2.16.4/changelogs/CHANGELOG-v2.16.rst
  * Bugfixes
  - Fix loading vars_plugins in roles (#82239).
  - expect - fix argument spec error using timeout=null (#80982).
  - include_vars - fix calculating depth relative to the root and
    ensure all files are included (#80987).
  - templating - ensure syntax errors originating from a template
    being compiled into Python code object result in a failure
    (#82606)
* Tue Jan 30 2024 Johannes Kastl <opensuse_buildservice@ojkastl.de>
- update to 2.16.3:
  https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/v2.16.3/changelogs/CHANGELOG-v2.16.rst
  * Security Fixes
  - ANSIBLE_NO_LOG - Address issue where ANSIBLE_NO_LOG was
    ignored (CVE-2024-0690)
  * Bugfixes
  - Run all handlers with the same listen topic, even when
    notified from another handler (#82363).
  - ansible-galaxy role import - fix using the role_name in a
    standalone role's galaxy_info metadata by disabling automatic
    removal of the ansible-role- prefix. This matches the
    behavior of the Galaxy UI which also no longer implicitly
    removes the ansible-role- prefix. Use the --role-name option
    or add a role_name to the galaxy_info dictionary in the
    role's meta/main.yml to use an alternate role name.
  - ansible-test sanity --test runtime-metadata - add
    action_plugin as a valid field for modules in the schema
    (#82562).
  - ansible-config init will now dedupe ini entries from plugins.
  - ansible-galaxy role import - exit with 1 when the import
    fails (#82175).
  - ansible-galaxy role install - normalize tarfile paths and
    symlinks using ansible.utils.path.unfrackpath and consider
    them valid as long as the realpath is in the tarfile's role
    directory (#81965).
  - delegate_to when set to an empty or undefined variable will
    now give a proper error.
  - dwim functions for lookups should be better at detectging
    role context even in abscense of tasks/main.
  - roles, code cleanup and performance optimization of
    dependencies, now cached, and public setting is now
    determined once, at role instantiation.
  - roles, the static property is now correctly set, this will
    fix issues with public and DEFAULT_PRIVATE_ROLE_VARS controls
    on exporting vars.
  - unsafe data - Enable directly using AnsibleUnsafeText with
    Python pathlib (#82414)
* Sun Jan 21 2024 Johannes Kastl <opensuse_buildservice@ojkastl.de>

  https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/v2.16.2/changelogs/CHANGELOG-v2.16.rst
  * Bugfixes
  - unsafe data - Address an incompatibility when iterating or
    getting a single index from AnsibleUnsafeBytes
  - unsafe data - Address an incompatibility with
    AnsibleUnsafeText and AnsibleUnsafeBytes when pickling with
    protocol=0
* Sun Jan 21 2024 Johannes Kastl <opensuse_buildservice@ojkastl.de>
- update to 2.16.1:
  https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/v2.16.1/changelogs/CHANGELOG-v2.16.rst

    conditional to be evaluated. See the porting guide for more
    information.
  * Security Fixes
  - templating - Address issues where internal templating can
    cause unsafe variables to lose their unsafe designation
    (CVE-2023-5764)
  * Bugfixes
  - Fix issue where an include_tasks handler in a role was not
    able to locate a file in tasks/ when tasks_from was used as a
    role entry point and main.yml was not present (#82241)
  - Plugin loader does not dedupe nor cache filter/test plugins
    by file basename, but full path name.
  - Restoring the ability of filters/tests can have same file
    base name but different tests/filters defined inside.
  - ansible-pull now will expand relative paths for the
  - d|--directory option is now expanded before use.
  - ansible-pull will now correctly handle become and connection
    password file options for ansible-playbook.
  - flush_handlers - properly handle a handler failure in a
    nested block when force_handlers is set
    (http://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/81532)
  - module no_log will no longer affect top level booleans, for
    example no_log_module_parameter='a' will no longer hide
    changed=False as a 'no log value' (matches 'a').
  - role params now have higher precedence than host facts again,
    matching documentation, this had unintentionally changed in
    2.15.
  - wait_for should not handle 'non mmapable files' again.
* Sun Jan 21 2024 Johannes Kastl <opensuse_buildservice@ojkastl.de>
- update to 2.16.0:
  https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/v2.16.0/changelogs/CHANGELOG-v2.16.rst
  * Bugfixes and Minor changes omitted for brevity, see full
    changelog
  * Breaking Changes / Porting Guide
  - Any plugin using the config system and the cli entry to use
    the timeout from the command line, will see the value change
    if the use had configured it in any of the lower precedence
    methods. If relying on this behaviour to consume the
    global/generic timeout from the DEFAULT_TIMEOUT constant,
    please consult the documentation on plugin configuration to
    add the overlaping entries.
  - ansible-test - Test plugins that rely on containers no longer
    support reusing running containers. The previous behavior was
    an undocumented, untested feature.
  - service module will not permanently configure variables/flags
    for openbsd when doing enable/disable operation anymore, this
    module was never meant to do this type of work, just to
    manage the service state itself. A rcctl_config or similar
    module should be created and used instead.
  * Deprecated Features
  - Deprecated ini config option collections_paths, use the
    singular form collections_path instead
  - Deprecated the env var ANSIBLE_COLLECTIONS_PATHS, use the
    singular form ANSIBLE_COLLECTIONS_PATH instead
  - Old style vars plugins which use the entrypoints
    get_host_vars or get_group_vars are deprecated. The plugin
    should be updated to inherit from BaseVarsPlugin and define a
    get_vars method as the entrypoint.
  - Support for Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2 has been removed
    as the support end of life from Microsoft is October 10th
    2023. These versions of Windows will no longer be tested in
    this Ansible release and it cannot be guaranteed that they
    will continue to work going forward.
  - STRING_CONVERSION_ACTION config option is deprecated as it is
    no longer used in the Ansible Core code base.
  - the 'smart' option for setting a connection plugin is being
    removed as it's main purpose (choosing between ssh and
    paramiko) is now irrelevant.
  - vault and unfault filters - the undocumented vaultid
    parameter is deprecated and will be removed in ansible-core
    2.20. Use vault_id instead.
  - yum_repository - deprecated parameter 'keepcache' (#78693).
  * Removed Features (previously deprecated)
  - ActionBase - remove deprecated _remote_checksum method
  - PlayIterator - remove deprecated cache_block_tasks and
    get_original_task methods
  - Remove deprecated FileLock class
  - Removed Python 3.9 as a supported version on the controller.
    Python 3.10 or newer is required.
  - Removed include which has been deprecated in Ansible 2.12.
    Use include_tasks or import_tasks instead.
  - Templar - remove deprecated shared_loader_obj parameter of
    __init__
  - fetch_url - remove auto disabling decompress when gzip is not
    available
  - get_action_args_with_defaults - remove deprecated
    redirected_names method parameter
  - ansible-test - Removed support for the remote Windows targets
    2012 and 2012-R2
  - inventory_cache - remove deprecated
    default.fact_caching_prefix ini configuration option, use
    defaults.fact_caching_prefix instead.
  - module_utils/basic.py - Removed Python 3.5 as a supported
    remote version. Python 2.7 or Python 3.6+ is now required.
  - stat - removed unused get_md5 parameter.
  * Security Fixes
  - ansible-galaxy - Prevent roles from using symlinks to
    overwrite files outside of the installation directory
    (CVE-2023-5115)
  * Known issues
  - ansible-galaxy - dies in the middle of installing a role when
    that role contains Java inner classes (files with $ in the
    file name). This is by design, to exclude temporary or backup
    files. (#81553).
  - ansible-test - The pep8 sanity test is unable to detect
    f-string spacing issues (E201, E202) on Python 3.10 and 3.11.
    They are correctly detected under Python 3.12. See
    (PyCQA/pycodestyle#1190).
* Tue Dec 12 2023 Johannes Kastl <kastl@b1-systems.de>

    AnsibleUnsafeText and AnsibleUnsafeBytes when pickling with
    protocol=0
* Tue Dec 05 2023 Johannes Kastl <kastl@b1-systems.de>

    new user homedir (allows /dev/null as skeleton) (#75063)
  - role params now have higher precedence than host facts again,
    matching documentation, this had unintentionally changed in
    2.15.

    transmission in daemonize()
  - ansible.module_utils.service - fix inter-process
    communication in daemonize()
  - ansible-galaxy - started allowing the use of pre-releases for
    collections that do not have any stable versions published.
    (#81606)
  - ansible-galaxy - started allowing the use of pre-releases for
    dependencies on any level of the dependency tree that
    specifically demand exact pre-release versions of collections
    and not version ranges. (#81606)
  - ansible-galaxy error on dependency resolution will not error
    itself due to 'virtual' collections not having a
    name/namespace.
  - ansible-galaxy info - fix reporting no role found when
    lookup_role_by_name returns None.
  - role deduplication - don't deduplicate before a role has had

  - Prompting - add a short sleep between polling for user input
    to reduce CPU consumption (#81516).

    mechanism is used to avoid Python versions with a broken
    implementation.
  - ansible-test - Always use ansible-test managed entry points
    for ansible-core CLI tools when not running from source. This
    fixes issues where CLI entry points created during install
    are not compatible with ansible-test.
  - first found lookup has been updated to use the normalized
    argument parsing (pythonic) matching the documented examples.
  - handlers - the listen keyword can affect only one handler
    with the same name, the last one defined as it is a case with
    the notify keyword (#81013)

    extract and extractall (#80832).
  - vault and unvault filters now properly take vault_id
    parameter.
* Wed Sep 06 2023 Johannes Kastl <kastl@b1-systems.de>
- as example files were split out into a separate package
  ansible-documentation upstream, this package now Recommends that
  package
- update to 2.15.3:
  * Minor Changes
  - Removed exclude and recursive-exclude commands for generated
    files from the MANIFEST.in file. These excludes were
    unnecessary since releases are expected to be built with a
    clean worktree.
  - Removed exclude commands for sanity test files from the
    MANIFEST.in file. These tests were previously excluded
    because they did not pass when run from an sdist. However,
    sanity tests are not expected to pass from an sdist, so
    excluding some (but not all) of the failing tests makes
    little sense.
  - Removed redundant include commands from the MANIFEST.in file.
    These includes either duplicated default behavior or another
    command.
  - The ansible-core sdist no longer contains pre-generated man
    pages. Instead, a packaging/cli-doc/build.py script is
    included in the sdist. This script can generate man pages and
    standalone RST documentation for ansible-core CLI programs.
  - The docs and examples directories are no longer included in
    the ansible-core sdist. These directories have been moved to
    the https://github.com/ansible/ansible-documentation
    repository.
  - Use include where recursive-include is unnecessary in the
    MANIFEST.in file.
  - ansible-test - Update the logic used to detect when
    ansible-test is running from source.
  - ansible-test - Updated the CloudStack test container to
    version 1.6.1.
  * Bugfixes
  - Exclude internal options from man pages and docs.
  - Fix ansible-config init man page option indentation.
  - The ansible-config init command now has a documentation
    description.
  - The ansible-galaxy collection download command now has a
    documentation description.
  - The ansible-galaxy collection install command documentation
    is now visible (previously hidden by a decorator).
  - The ansible-galaxy collection verify command now has a
    documentation description.
  - The ansible-galaxy role install command documentation is now
    visible (previously hidden by a decorator).
  - The ansible-inventory command command now has a documentation
    description (previously used as the epilog).
  - Update module_utils.urls unit test to work with cryptography
    >= 41.0.0.
  - When generating man pages, use func to find the command
    function instead of looking it up by the command name.
  - ansible-galaxy now considers all collection paths when
    identifying which collection requirements are already
    installed. Use the COLLECTIONS_PATHS and
    COLLECTIONS_SCAN_SYS_PATHS config options to modify these.
    Previously only the install path was considered when
    resolving the candidates. The install path will remain the
    only one potentially modified. (#79767, #81163)
  - ansible-test - Fix several possible tracebacks when using the
  - e option with sanity tests.
  - ansible-test - Pre-build a PyYAML wheel before installing
    requirements to avoid a potential Cython build failure.
  - ansible-test - Remove redundant warning about missing
    programs before attempting to execute them.
  - core will now also look at the connection plugin to force
    'local' interpreter for networking path compatibility as just
    ansible_network_os could be misleading.
  - man page build - Sub commands of ansible-galaxy role and
    ansible-galaxy collection are now documented.
  - password_hash - fix salt format for crypt (only used if
    passlib is not installed) for the bcrypt algorithm.
  - urls.py - fixed cert_file and key_file parameters when
    running on Python 3.12 - #80490
* Tue Jul 18 2023 Johannes Kastl <kastl@b1-systems.de>
- update to 2.15.2:
  * Minor Changes
  - Utilize gpg check provided internally by the transaction.run
    method as oppose to calling it manually.
  - ansible-test - Add Fedora 38 remote.
  - ansible-test - Use a context manager to perform cleanup at
    exit instead of using the built-in atexit module.
  - dnf5 - enable environment groups installation testing in CI
    as its support was added.
  - dnf5 - enable now implemented cacheonly functionality
  * Bugfixes
  - From issue #80880, when notifying a handler from another
    handler, handler notifications must be registered immediately
    as the flush_handler call is not recursive.
  - ansible-galaxy - Fix issue installing collections containing
    directories with more than 100 characters on python versions
    before 3.10.6
  - paramiko_ssh, psrp, and ssh connection plugins - ensure that
    all values for options that should be strings are actually
    converted to strings (#81029).
  - templating - In the template action and lookup, use local
    jinja2 environment overlay overrides instead of mutating the
    templars environment
  * Known Issues
  - ansible-test - The Fedora 37 remote is known to occasionally
    hang during boot. It is no longer routinely tested as a
    result. If possible, use the Fedora 38 remote instead.
* Wed Jun 21 2023 Johannes Kastl <kastl@b1-systems.de>
- update to 2.15.1:
  * Minor Changes
  - ansible-test - Allow float values for the --timeout option to
    the env command. This simplifies testing.
  - ansible-test - Refactored env command logic and timeout
    handling.
  - ansible-test - Use datetime.datetime.now with tz specified
    instead of datetime.datetime.utcnow.
  * Bugfixes
  - Properly disable jinja2_native in the template module when
    jinja2 override is used in the template (#80605)
  - ansible-galaxy - Fix variable type error when installing
    subdir collections (#80943)
  - ansible-test - Fix a traceback that occurs when attempting to
    test Ansible source using a different ansible-test. A clear
    error message is now given when this scenario occurs.
  - ansible-test - Fix handling of timeouts exceeding one day.
  - ansible-test - Fix various cases where the test timeout could
    expire without terminating the tests.
  - ansible-test local change detection - use git merge-base
    <branch> HEAD instead of git merge-base --fork-point <branch>
    (#79734).
  - deb822_repository - use http-agent for receiving content
    (#80809).
  - dnf5 - Update dnf5 module to handle API change for setting
    the download directory (#80887)
  - man page build - Remove the dependency on the docs directory
    for building man pages.
  - pep517 build backend - Copy symlinks when copying the source
    tree. This avoids tracebacks in various scenarios, such as
    when a venv is present in the source tree.
  - uri - fix search for JSON type to include complex strings
    containing '+'
* Mon May 15 2023 Johannes Kastl <kastl@b1-systems.de>

  new stack supported by SUSE
* Mon May 01 2023 Johannes Kastl <kastl@b1-systems.de>
- BuildRequire python3.9 to follow upstream (does not matter on
  Tumbleweed which is using 3.10 already...)
* Mon Apr 24 2023 Johannes Kastl <kastl@b1-systems.de>
- update to 2.14.5:
  https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/v2.14.5/changelogs/
  CHANGELOG-v2.14.rst
  * Bugfixes
  - ansible-doc - stop generating wrong module URLs for module
    see-alsos. The URLs for modules in ansible.builtin do now
    work, and URLs for modules outside ansible.builtin are no
    longer added (#80280).
  - ansible-galaxy - Improve retries for collection installs, to
    properly retry, and extend retry logic to common URL related
    connection errors (#80170 #80174)
  - ansible-galaxy - reduce API calls to servers by fetching
    signatures only for final candidates.
  - ansible-test - Add support for argcomplete version 3.
  - jinja2_native - fix intermittent 'could not find job'
    failures when a value of ansible_job_id from a result of an
    async task was inadvertently changed during execution; to
    prevent this a format of ansible_job_id was changed.
  - password lookup now correctly reads stored ident fields.
  - pep517 build backend - Use the documented import_module
    import from importlib.
  - roles - Fix templating public, allow_duplicates and
    rolespec_validate (#80304).
  - syntax check - Limit --syntax-check to ansible-playbook only,
    as that is the only CLI affected by this argument (#80506)
* Tue Mar 28 2023 Johannes Kastl <kastl@b1-systems.de>
- use `with` in dependencies instead of `and`
- update to 2.14.4:
  https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/v2.14.4/changelogs/
  CHANGELOG-v2.14.rst
  * Minor Changes
  - ansible-test - Moved git handling out of the validate-modules
    sanity test and into ansible-test.
  - ansible-test - Removed the --keep-git sanity test option,
    which was limited to testing ansible-core itself.
  - ansible-test - Updated the Azure Pipelines CI plugin to work
    with newer versions of git.
  * Breaking Changes / Porting Guide
  - ansible-test - Integration tests which depend on specific
    file permissions when running in an ansible-test managed
    host environment may require changes. Tests that require
    permissions other than 755 or 644 may need to be updated to
    set the necessary permissions as part of the test run.
  * Bugfixes
  - Fix MANIFEST.in to exclude unwanted files in the packaging/
    directory.
  - Fix MANIFEST.in to include `*.md` files in the test/support/
    directory.
