 # Changelog
 
+## Version 1.1.5
+
+* [BREAKING_CHANGE] - Removed indivudial `.sh` files in favor of `proxmox_generic.sh` script. This script is now used for all Proxmox templates. Detailed usage with all options can be found in the `README.md` file.
+* [FEATURE] - added EFI boot support for Proxmox. Every variable pack now has a new variable `use_efi` that can be set to `true` or `false`. If set to `true`, the template will be created with EFI boot support. If set to `false`, the template will be created with BIOS boot support. The default value is `false`.
+  * [PROXMOX] - added support for EFI boot for `RockyLinux`
+  * [PROXMOX] - added support for EFI boot for `AlmaLinux`
+  * [PROXMOX] - added support for EFI boot for `OracleLinux`
+  * [PROXMOX] - added support for EFI boot for `OpenSuse Leap`
+  * [PROXMOX] - added support for EFI boot for `Ubuntu`
+  * [PROXMOX] - added support for EFI boot for `Windows 2019`
+  * [PROXMOX] - added support for EFI boot for `Windows 2022`
+* [ANSIBLE] - added added section `gpgkey` to playbook, for easy GPG key installation before any repository operations are initiated. This is useful for systems that changed their GPG keys. The format is as follows:
+
+  ```yaml
+  gpgkey:
+    - url: "https://example.com/key.gpg"
+      state: present|absent
+  ```
+
+* [ANSIBLE] - changed playbook version to 20240612
+* [ORACLE] - fixed `ks.cfg` for version 8 using LVM instead of plain disks.
+* [PROXMOX] - added support for `OpenSuse Leap 15.6`

+### Updates
+
+In case of RHEL clones, only current release is allowed to do updates, as updating for example Alma Linux 8.8 will always end in current release (8.10). This is due to the way how RHEL clones are built. To avoid that, all updates in NON current releases are disabled by setting extra variable for ansible playbook `install_updates: false`
+
+```ini
+ansible_extra_args        = ["-e", "@extra/playbooks/provision_rocky8_variables.yml", "-e", "@variables/rockylinux8.yml", "-e", "{\"install_updates\": false}","--scp-extra-args", "'-O'"]
+```
+
+if you really want to start from historical release and update it to current release, remove `"-e","{\"install_updates\": false}"` from `ansible_extra_args` variable
