Ansible users beware! The new version of Ansible is here (https://pypi.org/project/ansible/6.1.0/), bringing major updates. In addition to a curated set of Ansible Collections that provide a vast number of modules and plugins, the Ansible 6.1.0 package also includes ansible-core 2.13.1, which is a significant update from Ansible 5 versions that included ansible-core 2.12. Make sure to check your playbooks for any potential compatibility issues.
New in Ansible 6:
a new command line utility “ansible-community” to check the installed version of the Ansible Community package,
Python wheels available for Ansible 6 and ansible-core 2.13. versions, resulting in significantly improved installation performance,
Ansible 6 no longer installs some unnecessary files from Ansible Collections (tests, hidden files and directories) to further improve installation performance and reduce the disk size,
and more.
You can install the package with pip install ansible==6.1.0.
