 - ``ansible-galaxy role import`` - fix using the ``role_name`` in a standalone role's ``galaxy_info`` metadata by disabling automatic removal of the ``ansible-role-`` prefix. This matches the behavior of the Galaxy UI which also no longer implicitly removes the ``ansible-role-`` prefix. Use the ``--role-name`` option or add a ``role_name`` to the ``galaxy_info`` dictionary in the role's ``meta/main.yml`` to use an alternate role name.
 - ``ansible-test sanity --test runtime-metadata`` - add ``action_plugin`` as a valid field for modules in the schema (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/82562).
 - ansible-config init will now dedupe ini entries from plugins.
+- ansible-galaxy role install - fix symlinks (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/82702, https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/81965).
 - ansible-galaxy role install - normalize tarfile paths and symlinks using ``ansible.utils.path.unfrackpath`` and consider them valid as long as the realpath is in the tarfile's role directory (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/81965).
 - delegate_to when set to an empty or undefined variable will now give a proper error.
 - unsafe data - Enable directly using ``AnsibleUnsafeText`` with Python ``pathlib`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/82414)
