- ran spec-cleaner
- remove old SUSE targets (SLE-11, Leap 42.3 and below)
This simplifies the spec file and makes building easier
- Additional required packages for building:
+ python-boto3 and python-botocore for Amazon EC2
+ python-jmespath for json queries
+ python-memcached for cloud modules and local caching of JSON
formatted, per host records
+ python-redis for cloud modules and local caching of JSON
formatted, per host records
+ python-requests for many web-based modules (cloud, network,
netapp)
=> as the need for those packages depends on the usage of the
tool, they are just recommended on openSUSE/SUSE machines
- made dependencies for gitlab, vmware and winrm modules configurable,
as most of their dependencies are not (yet) available on current
openSUSE/SUSE distributions
- exclude /usr/bin/pwsh from the automatic dependency generation,
as the Windows Power Shell is not available (yet) on openSUSE/SUSE
- build additional docs and split up ansible-doc package;
moving changelogs, contrib and example directories there
- prepare for building HTML documentation, but disable this per
default for the moment, as not all package dependencies are available
in openSUSE/SUSE (yet)
- package some test scripts with executable permissions

- update to version 2.7.6
Minor Changes:
* Added documentation about using VMware dynamic inventory plugin.
* Fixed bug around populating host_ip in hostvars in vmware_vm_inventory.
* Image reference change in Azure VMSS is detected and applied correctly.
* docker_volume - reverted changed behavior of force, which was released in Ansible 2.7.1 to 2.7.5, and Ansible 2.6.8 to 2.6.11. Volumes are now only recreated if the parameters changed and force is set to true (instead of or). This is the behavior which has been described in the documentation all the time.
* set ansible_os_family from name variable in os-release
* yum and dnf can now handle installing packages from URIs that are proxy redirects and don't end in the .rpm file extension
Bugfixes:
* Added log message at -vvvv when using netconf connection listing connection details.

* Fix mandatory statement error for junos modules (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/50138)
* Moved error in netconf connection plugin from at import to on connection.
* This reverts some changes from commit 723daf3. If a line is found in the file, exactly or via regexp matching, it must not be added again. insertafter/insertbefore options are used only when a line is to be inserted, to specify where it must be added.
* allow using openstack inventory plugin w/o a cache
* callbacks - Do not filter out exception, warnings, deprecations on failure when using debug (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/47576)
* certificate_complete_chain - fix behavior when invalid file is parsed while reading intermediate or root certificates.
* copy - Ensure that the src file contents is converted to unicode in diff information so that it is properly wrapped by AnsibleUnsafeText to prevent unexpected templating of diff data in Python3 (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/45717)
* correct behaviour of verify_file for vmware inventory plugin, it was always returning True
* dnf - fix issue where conf_file was not being loaded properly
* dnf - fix update_cache combined with install operation to not cause dnf transaction failure
* docker_container - fix network_mode idempotency if the container:<container-name> form is used (as opposed to container:<container-id>) (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/49794)
* docker_container - warning when non-string env values are found, avoiding YAML parsing issues. Will be made an error in Ansible 2.8. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/49802)
* docker_swarm_service - Document labels and container_labels with correct type.
* docker_swarm_service - Document limit_memory and reserve_memory correctly on how to specify sizes.

* docker_swarm_service - fix use of Docker API so that services are not detected as present if there is an existing service whose name is a substring of the desired service
* docker_swarm_service - fixing falsely reporting update_order as changed when option is not used.
* document old option that was initally missed
* ec2_instance now respects check mode https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/46774

* fix handling of firewalld port if protocol is missing
* fix lastpass lookup failure on python 3 (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/42062)

* flatpak_remote - Fixed Python 2/3 compatibility
* gcp_compute_instance - fix crash when the instance metadata is not set
* grafana_dashboard - Fix a pair of unicode string handling issues with version checking (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/49194)
* host execution order - Fix reverse_inventory not to change the order of the items before reversing on python2 and to not backtrace on python3
* icinga2_host - fixed the issue with not working use_proxy option of the module.
* influxdb_user - An unspecified password now sets the password to blank, except on existing users. This previously caused an unhandled exception.
* influxdb_user - Fixed unhandled exception when using invalid login credentials (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/50131)
* openssl_* - fix error when path contains a file name without path.
* openssl_csr - fix problem with idempotency of keyUsage option.
* openssl_pkcs12 - now does proper path expansion for ca_certificates.
* os_security_group_rule - os_security_group_rule doesn't exit properly when secgroup doesn't exist and state=absent (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/50057)
* paramiko_ssh - add auth_timeout parameter to ssh.connect when supported by installed paramiko version. This will prevent "Authentication timeout" errors when a slow authentication step (>30s) happens with a host (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/42596)
* purefa_facts and purefb_facts now correctly adds facts into main ansible_fact dictionary (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/50349)

skipping a config file from a world writable current working

Minor Changes

+ Updated virtual machine facts with instanceUUID which is unique
for each VM irrespective of name and BIOS UUID.
+ A lot of Bugfixes, please refer to the Changelog installed in
/usr/share/doc/packages/ansible/changelogs/CHANGELOG-v2.5.rst
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/systemsmanagement/ansible?expand=0&rev=109
Major Changes
* Ansible Network improvements
+ Created new connection plugins network_cli and netconf to replace
connection=local. connection=local will continue to work for a
number of Ansible releases.
+ No more unable to open shell. A clear and descriptive message will
be displayed in normal ansible-playbook output without needing to enable debug mode
+ Loads of documentation, see Ansible for Network Automation Documentation.
+ Refactor common network shared code into package under module_utils/network/
+ Filters: Add a filter to convert XML response from a network device to JSON object.
+ Loads of bug fixes.
+ Plus lots more.
* New simpler and more intuitive 'loop' keyword for task loops. The
with_<lookup> loops will likely be deprecated in the near future
and eventually removed.
* Added fact namespacing; from now on facts will be available under
ansible_facts namespace (for example: ansible_facts.os_distribution)
without the ansible_ prefix. They will continue to be added into the
main namespace directly, but now with a configuration toggle to enable
this. This is currently on by default, but in the future it will default to off.
* Added a configuration file that a site administrator can use to
specify modules to exclude from being used.
Minor Changes
* please refer to the CHANGELOG-v2.5.rst document
Deprecated Features
* Previously deprecated 'hostfile' config settings have been 're-deprecated'
because previously code did not warn about deprecated configuration settings.
* Using Ansible-provided Jinja tests as filters is deprecated and will
be removed in Ansible 2.9.
