Ansible 2.9 is End of Life and no longer receives any updates, also not to fix breaking CI. (In this case it would help to re-push the images converted to a newer Docker image format.)

I had the same problem ~two months ago, since I have some collections that still support 2.9 and 2.10 (the 2.10 images have the same problem). I created a repository for updated forks of ansible/ansible that have been patched so that they “mostly” work in CI: [GitHub - ansible-community/eol-ansible: CI helpers for End of Life Ansible/ansible-base/ansible-core versions](https://github.com/ansible-community/eol-ansible/) The README explains ([GitHub - ansible-community/eol-ansible: CI helpers for End of Life Ansible/ansible-base/ansible-core versions](https://github.com/ansible-community/eol-ansible/?tab=readme-ov-file#using-this-repository)) how to adjust your GHA workflow to use this repository (assuming you’re using the ansible-test-gh-action; if not it shouldn’t be too hard either). At least sanity and unit tests work fine with this repository. Some integration test images no longer work, see the comments in [GitHub - ansible-community/eol-ansible: CI helpers for End of Life Ansible/ansible-base/ansible-core versions](https://github.com/ansible-community/eol-ansible/?tab=readme-ov-file#supported-eol-branches).

(BTW, you never wrote what exactly you are testing. I’m assuming you’re running unit tests for a collection. In that case, this discussion should be moved into the Collection Development category. Or are you working on a PR for Ansible 2.9 itself?)
