yum - fix failure when using ``update_cache`` standalone - yum - handle special '_none_' value for proxy in yum.conf and .repo files Update to version 2.8.0 Major changes: * Experimental support for Ansible Collections and content namespacing - Ansible content can now be packaged in a collection and addressed via namespaces. This allows for easier sharing, distribution, and installation of bundled modules/roles/plugins, and consistent rules for accessing specific content via namespaces. * Python interpreter discovery - The first time a Python module runs on a target, Ansible will attempt to discover the proper default Python interpreter to use for the target platform/version (instead of immediately defaulting to /usr/bin/python). You can override this behavior by setting ansible_python_interpreter or via config. (see https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/50163) * become - The deprecated CLI arguments for --sudo, --sudo-user, --ask-sudo-pass, -su, --su-user, and --ask-su-pass have been removed, in favor of the more generic --become, --become-user, --become-method, and --ask-become-pass. * become - become functionality has been migrated to a plugin architecture, to allow customization of become functionality and 3rd party become methods (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/50991) - addresses CVE-2018-16859, CVE-2018-16876, CVE-2019-3828, CVE-2018-16837 For the full changelog see /usr/share/doc/packages/ansible/changelogs or online: https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/stable-2.8/changelogs/CHANGELOG-v2.8.rst This update was imported from the openSUSE:Leap:15.1:Update update project.
