Hi all-
**Important:** If you are upgrading from an older Ansible release,
please see the `How to get it` section for an important limitation.
We're happy to announce that the ansible-2.10 package is now available!
The Ansible package combines the work that went into decoupling the
ansible-base package, released last month, from the Ansible plugins
and the work of many contributors from the community, at numerous
partner businesses, and from Ansible itself to make the decoupled
content available to run on that base. Its goal is to provide users
an incrementally improved featureset over Ansible-2.9 but created from
multiple separate projects.
For an overview of "Ansible Collections" and the differences between
`ansible-base` and `ansible` please see

How to get it
Any particular reason why the source is not available here like with
older releases?
https://releases.ansible.com/ansible/
I'm asking because the openSUSE package .spec contains:
Source:
https://releases.ansible.com/ansible/ansible-%\{version\}\.tar\.gz
Source1:
https://releases.ansible.com/ansible/ansible-%\{version\}\.tar\.gz\.sha
If this download location is not the official URL anymore I can change
that of course.
Ciao, Michael.
I’m not sure if the why but yes, the official location is now supposed to be pypi.
We had decided to no longer ship rpms upstream early in the cycle because the rpm distributions were doing a much better job of packaging than we were. That turned into the tarballs as well which I don’t see a problem with as pypi is generally the go to location for python packages anyway but I can’t remember what the reasoning was.
Thanks for checking on that!
