Dear Team,

I just seen ansible 2.10 and surprised that most of the module's are missing

[root@server yum.repos.d]# more /etc/yum.repos.d/ansible.repo 
[testing]
name=ansible10
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0

[root@server yum.repos.d]# ansible-doc -l | wc -l

I am not able to see most of the ansible modules which i used to see in Ansible version till 2.9.

I am surprised that all playbooks and roles written till now ,do we need to change from scratch again ?

say for example till version 2.9 module name is archive,however from 2.10 onwards do we need to mention community.general.archive ?

we have millions of playbooks and roles written on our platform automation.If 2.10 is going to night mare we need to think on the different tools in coming deliverables.

may be i am missing something?  please help me to understand?

Thanks,

Felix Fontein

Hi,

it looks like you installed a nightly build of ansible-base (and
**not** Ansible!).

If you want to install Ansible 2.10, you can find it on pypi:
https://pypi.org/project/ansible/

If you're interested in the change from Ansible 2.9 to ansible-base
2.10 and Ansible 2.10, please read
https://github.com/ansible-collections/overview/blob/main/README.rst

Cheers,
Felix
