ansible-core milestone branch update - 2.14 Phase 3 #20

Closed sivel closed 5 months ago

sivel commented 2 years ago

The Core team has recently begun phase 3 development for 2.14 as of August 8, which means that the milestone branch has been advanced to the last commit of Aug 5, 2022 corresponding to https://github.com/ansible/ansible/commit/04e892757941bf77198692bbe37041d7a8cbf999

See the 2.14 roadmap for more information: https://docs.ansible.com/ansible-core/devel/roadmap/ROADMAP_2_14.html#development-phase

Important changes in this update:

  1. Python 3.9 is the minimum required version of Python for controller execution
  2. Filesystem and locale pre-flight checks now require a UTF-8 encoding to permit all CLI utilities to operate. ansible-test will prefer en_US.UTF-8 with a fallback of C.UTF-8. If neither are available ansible-test will also exit with an error.
