- ansible-test - Make Python 3.12 the default version used in the ``base`` and ``default`` containers.
Deprecated Features
-------------------
- Old style vars plugins which use the entrypoints `get_host_vars` or `get_group_vars` are deprecated. The plugin should be updated to inherit from `BaseVarsPlugin` and define a `get_vars` method as the entrypoint.
Bugfixes
--------
- Cache host_group_vars after instantiating it once and limit the amount of repetitive work it needs to do every time it runs.
- Call PluginLoader.all() once for vars plugins, and load vars plugins that run automatically or are enabled specifically by name subsequently.
- Fix ``run_once`` being incorrectly interpreted on handlers (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/81666)
- Properly template tags in parent blocks (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/81053)
- ansible-galaxy - Provide a better error message when using a requirements file with an invalid format - https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/81901
- ansible-inventory - index available_hosts for major performance boost when dumping large inventories
- ansible-test - Add a ``pylint`` plugin to work around a known issue on Python 3.12.
- ansible-test - Include missing ``pylint`` requirements for Python 3.10.
- ansible-test - Update ``pylint`` to version 3.0.1.

- ansible-galaxy - dies in the middle of installing a role when that role contains Java inner classes (files with $ in the file name). This is by design, to exclude temporary or backup files. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/81553).
- ansible-test - The ``pep8`` sanity test is unable to detect f-string spacing issues (E201, E202) on Python 3.10 and 3.11. They are correctly detected under Python 3.12. See (https://github.com/PyCQA/pycodestyle/issues/1190).
- ansible-test - The ``pylint`` sanity test is not supported on Python 3.12. Use Python 3.10 or 3.11 instead.
