almalinux-8 is going away due to CentOS 8 EOL preventing use of

CentOS Stream8 is about to go EOL so is not suitable for a docs example.

Osinfo-db recently added a new CLI option '--nightly' which makes it
much easier to get the latest DB on one's host mainly for automation
purposes. Even if '--nightly' isn't available with a given version of
the `osinfo-db-import` command, users can still benefit from the
automated GitLab nightly builds by either downloading the archive
manually or even better passing the URL directly to the command osinfo
import command.

It's getting harder to get around with only the builtin modules and
we'll need to use some of the curated community modules. The split of
Ansible into 'ansible-core' and 'ansible community (aka ansible)'
happened in v2.10. The way this patch enforces the version used in by
delegating a version check task to localhost, failing if the control
node doesn't meet the minimum version. 2.10 is pretty common these
days, so essentially only users on Debian-10 would be impacted by
this, but then again, installing from PyPI is a simple workaround in
that case.

Also document that the default root password is weak and unless a
simple setup is required strongly advocate for changing it.

The file passed to --script argument is made an executable file
before mounting it in the container.
The documentation is updated so that users don't have to manually
perform this change.

Add a section on what the preferred naming scheme for mappings is so
that contributors can refer to it when adding new mappings and make it
both consistent from now on as well as make everybody's lives easier.

Just like Alma Linux only has the "9" version number, only use "15" in the target
name for OpenSUSE Leap. The minor version is only needed in the FROM line of
the dockerfiles and for the installation URLs.

Without a section header, this information could be easily overlooked,

We recently switched from plain setup.py setup to be fully compatible
with PEP 517 relying solely on pyproject.toml (with setup.py reserved
for legacy reasons). Installation is now only possible with pip, so our
docs need an update.

Allow overriding target facts in a project. This is useful to specify
the paths to a specific version of Python.

Allow specifying individual projects to override the version they require
of a required version of a PyPI or CPAN package. Projects that want
to test with an old version of Meson could therefore disable the distro
version and install the old version directly from PyPI.

The ansible/vars/ directory is not passed directly to Ansible, it
is passed in the group variables after processing in Python.
Furthermore, it is also used to generate Dockerfiles which does not
involve Ansible. Move it to another name which matches the name
of the variables.

The ansible/group_vars/ directory is not directly related to what is
passed to Ansible in group variables; those also include packages.
Furthermore, it is also used to generate Dockerfiles which does not
involve Ansible. Move it to another name which matches the name
of the variables in the code.

By renaming the section we can add simply dump more tips to the

Originally the section name made sense, but since we moved the much of
the original README's content to docs/vms.rst we could add a more
fitting name for the section in the context of VMs.

The paragraph now doesn't discuss anything that wouldn't be clear from
the 'Installation' and 'Updating VMs' sections and so can be safely
dropped.

We never really documented updates properly. While at it, move the
mention of crontab out of 'Configuration' and put it to the new
section on updating as it feels a bit off in its current place.

This makes more sense from logical point of view, first we configure
lcitool, then we install VMs, then we can start messing with cloud-init
and creating templates. All the other information can be pushed towards
the end of the document.

This section used to be a standalone section mentioned after other
stuff unrelated to VM installation. Therefore, move the section and
make it a subsection of the whole VM installation process as it makes
more sense.

order to be as much as helpful to outside projects interested in

We never mentioned libvirt or QEMU in the VM dependencies although
these would be likely pulled in by virt-install. Nevertheless it's
worth mentioning explicitly.

Installing system-wide with pip leads to security implications
(packages not updated with system package manager) and potentially
broken system packages since pip would replace files in the system
paths. Therefore, instead of suggesting system-wide installation with
pip, suggest usage of virtual environments.
