Pluto, A Deprecated apiVersion Found
pluto on EL 10 from the GitHub release, refused by Ansible's get_url unless its SHA-256 is the one in the vendor's checksums file, and re-checked by the live test, which writes an Ingress at extensions/v1beta1 and has pluto detect-files name the replacement and exit 3. Pinned; a newer release is a variable change. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.

Documentation
pluto
Fairwinds pluto on EL 10 from the vendor's release, checked against the
published SHA-256, pinned to a version, installed as root's binary
in /usr/local/bin. Original role for EL 10, live-tested with podman on
Rocky Linux 10.
No package worth the name. EL 10 carries no pluto, and a
third-party repository is one more key to trust. This role takes the
release from pluto.docs.fairwinds.com, has Ansible's get_url refuse the asset unless
its SHA-256 is the published one, and the live test checks the asset on
disk against the same published value again.
Pinned. pluto_version is what gets installed, kept in a directory
of its own so the checksum file and the asset it names stay together. A
newer release is a variable change and a run; the same version is
changed=0.
Proven to run. The live test runs pluto detect-files -d /tmp/pluto-p and expects
"extensions/v1beta1" - the binary ran all the way to the point where it
needed something this host does not have.
A deprecated apiVersion, found. The live test writes an Ingress at
extensions/v1beta1 and has pluto detect-files read the directory: the
table names the kind, the old version, its replacement
(networking.k8s.io/v1) and that it is removed, and pluto exits 3, the
code that tells CI a manifest will not apply on a current cluster. Helm
releases in a cluster are pluto detect-helm with a kubeconfig.

ansible-argocd-cli
The argocd client on EL 10 from the GitHub release, refused by Ansible's get_url unless its SHA-256 is the one in the vendor's cli_checksums.txt, and re-checked with sha256sum -c by the live test, which then runs argocd app list with no server and expects 'server address unspecified'. The server is a cluster install, not this role. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.
ansible-cilium-cli
cilium on EL 10 from the GitHub release, refused by Ansible's get_url unless its SHA-256 is the one in the per-asset .sha256sum Cilium publishes, and re-checked with sha256sum -c by the live test, which then runs cilium config view with no cluster and expects the refused connection. Installing Cilium into a cluster stays yours. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.
ansible-flux-cli
flux on EL 10 from the GitHub release, refused by Ansible's get_url unless its SHA-256 is the one in the vendor's checksums file, and re-checked with sha256sum -c by the live test, which then runs flux check --pre with no cluster and expects the refused connection. Flux also signs the checksums with cosign; this role checks the hash. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.
ansible-helm
helm on EL 10 from get.helm.sh, refused by Ansible's get_url unless its SHA-256 is the one in the .sha256sum file published beside the tarball, and re-checked with sha256sum -c by the live test, which then runs helm list with no cluster and expects 'kubernetes cluster unreachable'. Pinned; a newer release is a variable change. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.
ansible-helmfile
helmfile on EL 10 from the GitHub release, refused by Ansible's get_url unless its SHA-256 is the one in the project's checksums file, and re-checked with sha256sum -c by the live test, which then runs helmfile list on a one-release file with no helm on the host and expects it to read the file and stop at the missing helm; pair it with the helm role. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.
ansible-kyverno-cli
The kyverno CLI on EL 10 from the GitHub release, refused by Ansible's get_url unless its SHA-256 is the one in the vendor's checksums file, and re-checked by the live test, which applies a require-label policy offline: the unlabelled Pod fails, the labelled one passes. Pinned; a newer release is a variable change. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.
