If you’re using FreeBSD or macOS remotes (VMs) in your collection CI, please note that these changed in `devel`:

- macOS: [ansible-test - Upgrade macOS remote to 26.3 by mattclay · Pull Request #86699 · ansible/ansible · GitHub](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/86699)
- FreeBSD: [ansible-test - Upgrade FreeBSD 14.3 to 14.4 by mattclay · Pull Request #86698 · ansible/ansible · GitHub](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/86698)

Also note that it is now possible to specify aliases to avoid hard-coding versions in the CI matrix: [ansible-test - Add managed test environment aliases by mattclay · Pull Request #86592 · ansible/ansible · GitHub](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/86592)
