* Maintain symlinks in setup.py sdist, build, and install commands
Symlinks are meaningful for ansible modules. They differentiate between
aliases and deprecated modules. They're also useful for saving space
and where downstream patches should be applied to the bin scripts.
Fixes#27105
* Add a fallback for install and build to try to cache symlinks on their own
Needed when someone tries to invoke setup.py build or setup.py install
directly from the source checkout without an intermediate sdist.
* surrogate_then_strict doesn't exist. Switch to surrogate_or_strict
instead.
* Found some bugs in the _text.py implementation
* The composed error handlers (error handlers which are made up of two
or more python encoding error handlers) had a wrong string in it,
'surrogate_or_escape' doesn't exist. Replaced that with
'surrogate_or_replace' which is the correct handler name.
* Left comment about the implicit conditions that are part of the
surrogate_then_replace code path

This fixes the symbolic notation of the chmod modes, as stated in the man page of chmod (in Linux). This also takes into account that chmod a+x is different from chmod +x. As the second one should take the current umask into account.
Fixes#14634
* Add example of templating inline using copy module
The **copy** module documentation implies that `content:` only works
for 'simple values' and for complex stuff you need the **template**
module, but that is an understatement. You can use **copy** to template
anything you desire.
So I changed the wording, added an example, and also added a note
to the template module that the **copy** module could be used for
'inline templating'.
This fixes#19741.
One of the complex map + filter + lambda combinations here was causing
pylint to have a rare false positive detecting undefined variables.
Switch to list comprehensions and generator expressions which are
easi(er) to read for humans and do not confuse pylint.

* Use atomic_move rather than writing in place in redhat_subscription and redhat utils
* Change status to curated
* Put curated in the proper field
* Add RETURN doc section
* Disable yum plugins when unregistering
* Change back to community supported
* Alphabetize imports
Sometimes MacOSX's pwd doesn't return an expanded path. Not sure why
but this test is still valid if we expand it via a playbook filter so
go ahead and do that.
In the past, selinux.security_get_boolean_names did return 'bytes'
on python 3, but this was changed to return string later, cf:
b8711e2eaf
So we have to convert to bytes only if the API return us bytes.
Fix#25651
More openssl modules are about to be made, each of them rewriting
some pieces of code that can be refactored and used via a common
library.
This commit aims to create this "base" object and the common functions
one might want to reuse in order to avoid duplication.
* Added ability to specify destination OU when joining a domain
* Updated win_domain_membership documentation to include OU destination option.
* Updated python to include version
* Additional info in the docs
Two reasons to do this:
- It provides a proper error message indicating why it failed
- It conforms to what is being done in the command and shell modules
unsafe_writes currently allows updating a file that can be updated but
not removed (for instance, when docker mounted). This change also
allows unsafe_writes to write to writable files in unwritable dirs. For
instance, if a system has made a single file inside of /etc/ writable to
a specific normal user.
Fixes#14961
The HTTP User-Agent "ansible-httpget" is already kind of the default,
it being the default value provided by the `url_argument_spec` helper
method. Yet, it may not be practical for all modules to get their
argument_spec that way.
Without a default User-Agent we fall back on the library
User-Agent. That being something like "Python-urllib/2.7".
While I'm no big fan of web servers making decisions based on the
provided User-Agent I still think that part of being a well-behaved
HTTP client is to provide an informative User-Agent. Not to mention
that it's a good thing for Ansible to behave consistently.
Indirectly fixes#26239
Turns out in some commands, like 'sh bgp summary' a line containing
'Not found' can be shown as a column.
This causes those commands to error out with RC=1 .
Fixes#26577
