When providing . as the folder path of the lintables to ansible-lint it does not lint the folder molecule/default containing converge.yml, prepare.yml, verify.yml, hence folder molecule/ need to be added to the ansible-lint call in the molecule lint commands.

Linting violations need to be fixed alongside this change:

The Docker executor has two levels of caching: a global one (like any other executor) and a local cache based on Docker volumes. The configuration flag disable_cache acts only on the local one which disables the use of automatically created (not mapped to a host directory) cache volumes.

The role fails when applying in check_mode on a fresh target host:

TASK [hifis.gitlab_runner : Create SSH key pair for communicating with Runners.] ***
fatal: [gitlabcomhzdr]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "The directory /etc/gitlab-runner does not exist or the file is not a directory", "name": "/etc/gitlab-runner"}

This is required for #30 to be merged.

It would allow us to automatically update Poetry dependencies and GitHub Actions.

Currently, the CI pipeline does not work for forks. The molecule test jobs are failing in this case.

This appeared in #7.

Manage citation metadata as part of the source code repository by providing a file codemeta.json (machine-readable information about your software including citation metadata) or providing a file CITATION.cff (human/machine-readable citation metadata).

According to https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/events-that-trigger-workflows#schedule

Configuration of [session_server] section is currently not supported. It is essential to provide interactive web terminals.

For a user it might be more convenient to install docker themselves the way the like. This is why the docker role should not be installed automatically any longer.

This will result in a breaking change.

This feature was deprecated in GitLab 15.6 and is planned for removal in 16.0. This change is a breaking change. GitLab plans to introduce a new GitLab Runner token architecture, which introduces a new method for registering runners and eliminates the legacy runner registration token.

In order to be prepared for the upcoming changes to the ubuntu-latest image in GitHub Actions, which is expected to run with `cgroupsv2´ enabled, we will be experiencing issues with systemd in docker.

Several posts seem to confirm, that Docker, systemd and cgroupsv2 don't really work together:

• https://serverfault.com/a/1054414
• https://gist.github.com/pinkeen/bba0a6790fec96d6c8de84bd824ad933

One solution is to completely get rid of Docker and switch to Podman instead, which is what I suggest to do.

Currently, the session_server configuration can be added and changed, but it cannot be removed. Allow a user of the role to be able to remove the session_server configuration.

In more recent versions of Flatcar, overwrite needs to be set to true explicitly.

Currently, the cache configuration can be added and changed, but it cannot be removed. Allow a user of the role to be able to remove the cache configuration.

The changes to the global configuration result in a change even in change mode. This happens due to
