Hi all, We're happy to announce that the ansible-2.10.5 package is now available! This update contains bugfixes and new, backwards compatible features in the contained collections.
Ansible-2.10.x is a big change in how the Ansible package is built so if you missed out on all the changes that have gone into the ansible-2.10.x packages, please read the announcement for ansible-2.10.0: https://groups.google.com/g/ansible-announce/c/QxIOml3i62A How to get it ------------- Due to a limitation in pip, if you are upgrading from Ansible 2.9 (or earlier), you need to uninstall ansible before installing the 2.10 version: ``` $ pip uninstall ansible $ pip install ansible==2.10.5 --user ``` The tar.gz of the release can be found here: * Ansible 2.10.5 https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/a/ansible/ansible-2.10.5.tar.gz SHA256: 9775229aae31336a624ca5afe5533fea5e49ef4daa96a96791dd9871b2d8b8d1 What's new in Ansible 2.10.5 ---------------------------- * This release includes new collections which copy plugins from community.general. The plugins will continue to work from their old locations but won't see many updates until Ansible-3.0.0. If you want to get more recent versions, please change to the new location (for instance, community.general.gcpubsub is moving to community.google.gcpubsub). * cisco.nso: https://galaxy.ansible.com/cisco/nso * community.google: https://galaxy.ansible.com/community/google * community.hashi_vault: https://galaxy.ansible.com/community/hashi_vault * community.kubevirt: https://galaxy.ansible.com/community/kubevirt * Collections which have opted into being a part of the Ansible-2.10.5 unified changelog will have an entry on this page: https://github.com/ansible-community/ansible-build-data/blob/main/2.10/CHANGELOG-v2.10.rst#v2-10-5 * For collections which have not opted into the unified changelog, consult the list of included collections in the link below and check their entry on https://galaxy.ansible.com for information about their changes. * List of collections included in the 2.10.5 release: https://github.com/ansible-community/ansible-build-data/blob/main/2.10/ansible-2.10.5.deps * You can find more information for those on https://galaxy.ansible.com/. For instance, the community.crypto collection listed in the ansible-2.10.5.deps file has a galaxy page at https://galaxy.ansible.com/community/crypto/ * Changelog for ansible-base-2.10.4 which this release of ansible installs: https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/stable-2.10/changelogs/CHANGELOG-v2.10.rst What's the schedule for new Ansible releases after 2.10.5? ---------------------------------------------------------- * Patch releases will continue to be released approximately every three weeks with bugfixes and new features as long as those features do not cause incompatibilities. * These releases will all be based on ansible-base-2.10.x, we are expecting ansible-2.10.6 to be released around January 26th. * The next major release of Ansible (3.0.0) is scheduled for February 16, 2021. This release will still be based on ansible-base-2.10 but will contain potential incompatible changes to the included collections. * We are adopting semantic versioning in that version, so it will be Ansible-3.0.0 rather than Ansible-2.11.0. * At the moment, the plan is for Ansible-2.10.6 to be the last 2.10.x release. Further releases will be of Ansible-3.0.x. If there is a desire for maintenance releases of older versions, drop by a Community Working Group Meeting to discuss how you can help.
