-* apt\_rpm \- when checking whether packages were installed after running <code>apt\-get \-y install \<packages\></code>\, only the last package name was checked \([https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/pull/8263](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/pull/8263)\)\.
-* bitwarden\_secrets\_manager lookup plugin \- implements retry with exponential backoff to avoid lookup errors when Bitwardn\'s API rate limiting is encountered \([https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/issues/8230](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/issues/8230)\, [https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/pull/8238](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/pull/8238)\)\.

Fix now checks for an error and raises it to give accurate error message to users \([https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/issues/8047](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/issues/8047)\)\.
-* incus connection plugin \- treats <code>inventory\_hostname</code> as a variable instead of a literal in remote connections \([https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/issues/7874](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/issues/7874)\)\.
-* interface\_files \- also consider <code>address\_family</code> when changing <code>option\=method</code> \([https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/issues/7610](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/issues/7610)\, [https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/pull/7612](https\://github\.com/ansible\-collections/community\.general/pull/7612)\)\.

 * Try committing your changes with an informative but short commit message.
 * Do not squash your commits and force-push to your branch if not needed. Reviews of your pull request are much easier with individual commits to comprehend the pull request history. All commits of your pull request branch will be squashed into one commit by GitHub upon merge.
 * Do not add merge commits to your PR. The bot will complain and you will have to rebase ([instructions for rebasing](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/dev_guide/developing_rebasing.html)) to remove them before your PR can be merged.

-# Docs helper. Create RST file.
-
-The playbook `playbook.yml` writes a RST file that can be used in
-docs/docsite/rst. The usage of this helper is recommended but not
-mandatory. You can stop reading here and update the RST file manually
-if you don't want to use this helper.
-
-## Run the playbook
-
-If you want to generate the RST file by this helper fit the variables
-in the playbook and the template to your needs. Then, run the play
-
-```sh
-shell> ansible-playbook playbook.yml
-```
-
-## Copy RST to docs/docsite/rst
-
-Copy the RST file to `docs/docsite/rst` and remove it from this
-directory.
-
-## Update the checksums
-
-Substitute the variables and run the below commands
-
-```sh
-shell> sha1sum {{ target_vars }} > {{ target_sha1 }}
-shell> sha1sum {{ file_rst }} > {{ file_sha1 }}
-```
-
-## Playbook explained
-
-The playbook includes the variable *tests* from the integration tests
-and creates the RST file from the template. The playbook will
-terminate if:
-
-* The file with the variable *tests* was changed
-* The RST file was changed
-
-This means that this helper is probably not up to date.
-
-### The file with the variable *tests* was changed
-
-This means that somebody updated the integration tests. Review the
-changes and update the template if needed. Update the checksum to pass
-the integrity test. The playbook message provides you with the
-command.
-
-### The RST file was changed
-
-This means that somebody updated the RST file manually. Review the
-changes and update the template. Update the checksum to pass the
-integrity test. The playbook message provides you with the
-command. Make sure that the updated template will create identical RST
-file. Only then apply your changes.

-Merging lists of dictionaries
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-If you have two or more lists of dictionaries and want to combine them into a list of merged dictionaries, where the dictionaries are merged by an attribute, you can use the :ansplugin:`community.general.lists_mergeby <community.general.lists_mergeby#filter>` filter.
-
-.. note:: The output of the examples in this section use the YAML callback plugin. Quoting: "Ansible output that can be quite a bit easier to read than the default JSON formatting." See the documentation for the :ansplugin:`community.general.yaml callback plugin <community.general.yaml#callback>`.
-
-Let us use the lists below in the following examples:
-
-.. code-block:: yaml
-
-  {{ lookup('file', 'default-common.yml') | split('\n') | reject('match', '^(#|---)') | join ('\n')  | indent(2) }}
-
-{% for i in examples[0:2] %}
-{% if i.title | d('', true) | length > 0 %}
-{{ i.title }}
-{{ "%s" % ('"' * i.title|length) }}
-{% endif %}
-{{ i.description }}
-

-
-The filter also accepts two optional parameters: :ansopt:`community.general.lists_mergeby#filter:recursive` and :ansopt:`community.general.lists_mergeby#filter:list_merge`. This is available since community.general 4.4.0.
-
-**recursive**
-    Is a boolean, default to ``false``. Should the :ansplugin:`community.general.lists_mergeby#filter` filter recursively merge nested hashes. Note: It does not depend on the value of the ``hash_behaviour`` setting in ``ansible.cfg``.
-
-**list_merge**
-    Is a string, its possible values are :ansval:`replace` (default), :ansval:`keep`, :ansval:`append`, :ansval:`prepend`, :ansval:`append_rp` or :ansval:`prepend_rp`. It modifies the behaviour of :ansplugin:`community.general.lists_mergeby#filter` when the hashes to merge contain arrays/lists.
-
-The examples below set :ansopt:`community.general.lists_mergeby#filter:recursive=true` and display the differences among all six options of :ansopt:`community.general.lists_mergeby#filter:list_merge`. Functionality of the parameters is exactly the same as in the filter :ansplugin:`ansible.builtin.combine#filter`. See :ref:`Combining hashes/dictionaries <combine_filter>` to learn details about these options.
-
-Let us use the lists below in the following examples
-
-.. code-block:: yaml
-
-  {{ lookup('file', 'default-recursive-true.yml') | split('\n') | reject('match', '^(#|---)') | join ('\n') |indent(2) }}
-
-{% for i in examples[6:] %}
-{% if i.title | d('', true) | length > 0 %}
-{{ i.title }}
-{{ "%s" % ('"' * i.title|length) }}
-{% endif %}
-{{ i.description }}
-
-.. code-block:: {{ i.lang }}
-
-  {{ lookup('file', i.file) | split('\n') | reject('match', '^(#|---)') | join ('\n') |indent(2) }}

-# Docs helper. Create RST file.
-
-The playbook `playbook.yml` writes a RST file that can be used in
-docs/docsite/rst. The usage of this helper is recommended but not
-mandatory. You can stop reading here and update the RST file manually
-if you don't want to use this helper.
-
-## Run the playbook
-
-If you want to generate the RST file by this helper fit the variables
-in the playbook and the template to your needs. Then, run the play
-
-```sh
-shell> ansible-playbook playbook.yml
-```
-
-## Copy RST to docs/docsite/rst
-
-Copy the RST file to `docs/docsite/rst` and remove it from this
-directory.
-
-## Update the checksums
-
-Substitute the variables and run the below commands
-
-```sh
-shell> sha1sum {{ target_vars }} > {{ target_sha1 }}
-shell> sha1sum {{ file_rst }} > {{ file_sha1 }}
-```
-
-## Playbook explained
-
-The playbook includes the variable *tests* from the integration tests
-and creates the RST file from the template. The playbook will
-terminate if:
-
-* The file with the variable *tests* was changed
-* The RST file was changed
-
-This means that this helper is probably not up to date.
-
-### The file with the variable *tests* was changed
-
-This means that somebody updated the integration tests. Review the
-changes and update the template if needed. Update the checksum to pass
-the integrity test. The playbook message provides you with the
-command.
-
-### The RST file was changed
-
-This means that somebody updated the RST file manually. Review the
-changes and update the template. Update the checksum to pass the
-integrity test. The playbook message provides you with the
-command. Make sure that the updated template will create identical RST
-file. Only then apply your changes.
