rclone, A Copy Checked With 0 Differences
rclone on EL 10 from the GitHub release, refused by Ansible's get_url unless its SHA-256 is the one in the vendor's SHA256SUMS, and re-checked by the live test, which copies a directory, lists the copy with its size and has rclone check report 0 differences. Remotes are rclone config, per user. Pinned; a newer release is a variable change. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.

Documentation
rclone
Rclone rclone 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 rclone, and a
third-party repository is one more key to trust. This role takes the
release from rclone.org, 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. rclone_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 rclone check /tmp/rclone-p/src /tmp/rclone-p/dst and expects
"0 differences found" - the binary ran all the way to the point where it
needed something this host does not have.
Copied and checked, no remote needed. rclone treats a local path
as a backend like any other, so the live test copies a directory with
rclone copy, lists the result with rclone lsl (the size is the
file's), and has rclone check compare source and destination:
"0 differences found" is the proof. Remotes (S3, GCS, Azure, SFTP and
seventy more) are rclone config, per user, and the same commands. The
release is a zip with the binary under rclone-v<version>-linux-<arch>/,
beside a man page this role does not install. Rclone's SHA256SUMS carries
a signed text header, so the live test's sha256sum -c runs without
--strict (which would refuse the header lines) and still expects OK.

ansible-borg
BorgBackup from EPEL: an encrypted, deduplicated repository, your paths backed up on a systemd timer with daily, weekly and monthly retention, the passphrase generated once and the key exported. The live test backs up a file through the unit, deletes it, restores it byte for byte, and sees a wrong passphrase refused. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.
ansible-garage
Garage on EL 10 from the vendor's release, pinned by a SHA-256 the role carries (the vendor publishes no checksum file), as a hardened systemd service on loopback with a single-node layout applied on the first start; the live test creates a bucket and a key through the RPC, grants it, reads it back, and sees an anonymous S3 request refused. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.
ansible-kopia
kopia 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 creates a filesystem repository, snapshots a directory, lists the snapshot and has kopia verify read every object back, all offline. Pinned; a newer release is a variable change. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.
ansible-samba-share
Samba for named accounts over SMB 3 only. The package accepts SMB 2.0.2, encrypts and signs only when the client asks, shares every local home, exposes printer shares and runs NetBIOS on 139. This role requires encryption and signing (the live test reads it from the server), serves only the shares you list, and speaks on 445 alone. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.
ansible-seaweedfs
SeaweedFS (SHA-256 pinned) on EL 10 from the upstream release, as a hardened systemd service on loopback; the live test writes a file through the filer, reads it back and deletes it, sees anonymous S3 refused, runs a SigV4-signed bucket/put/get/delete round trip with the configured identity, sees a wrong secret refused, and reads the metrics. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.
ansible-syncthing
Syncthing from the upstream release with its API on loopback behind a key that never appears in the unit file. Discovery, relays, NAT traversal, crash reports and self-upgrade are switched off through the REST API. The live test sees a missing or wrong key refused, finds no key in the unit, and watches a shared folder get indexed. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.
