in ``complex_vars`` itself (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10961).
- wsl connection plugin - avoid deprecated ansible-core paramiko import helper,
import paramiko directly instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/10515,

release_summary: This is release 12.0.0 of ``community.general``, released on
2025-11-03.
removed_features:
- Ansible-core 2.16 is no longer supported. This also means that the collection
now requires Python 3.7+ (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10884).
- bearychat - the module has been removed as the chat service is no longer
available (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10883).
- cmd_runner module utils - the parameter ``ignore_value_none`` to ``CmdRunner.__call__()``
has been removed (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10883).
- cmd_runner_fmt module utils - the parameter ``ctx_ignore_none`` to argument
formatters has been removed (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10883).
- facter - the module has been replaced by ``community.general.facter_facts``
(https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10883).
- mh.deco module utils - the parameters ``on_success`` and ``on_failure``
of ``cause()`` have been removed; use ``when="success"`` and ``when="failure"``
instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10883).
- opkg - the value ``""`` for the option ``force`` is no longer allowed. Omit
``force`` instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10883).
- pacemaker_cluster - the option ``state`` is now required (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10883).
- pure module utils - the modules using this module utils have been removed
from community.general 3.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10883).
- purestorage doc fragment - the modules using this doc fragment have been
removed from community.general 3.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10883).
- yaml callback plugin - the deprecated plugin has been removed. Use the default
callback with ``result_format=yaml`` instead (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/10883).
security_fixes:
- 'keycloak_user - the parameter ``credentials[].value`` is now marked as
``no_log=true``. Before it was logged by Ansible, unless the task was marked
as ``no_log: true``. Since this parameter can be used for passwords, this
resulted in credential leaking (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/11000,
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/11005).'
