Description: The syntax of the ansible-galaxy command has changed slightly since support for collections has been added. We really should be using the 'role' subcommand consistently :

$ ansible-galaxy role -h
usage: ansible-galaxy role [-h] ROLE_ACTION ...

positional arguments:
  ROLE_ACTION
    init       Initialize new role with the base structure of a role.
    remove     Delete roles from roles_path.
    delete     Removes the role from Galaxy. It does not remove or alter the actual GitHub repository.
    list       Show the name and version of each role installed in the roles_path.
    search     Search the Galaxy database by tags, platforms, author and multiple keywords.
    import     Import a role into a galaxy server
    setup      Manage the integration between Galaxy and the given source.
    info       View more details about a specific role.
    install    Install role(s) from file(s), URL(s) or Ansible Galaxy

In this section specifically, we have several examples that should be updated to use the following:

ansible-galaxy role install

ansible-galaxy role search

ansible-galaxy role info

ansible-galaxy role list

ansible-galaxy role remove

The same goes for the upcoming exercise as well.

The previous section should use 'ansible-galaxy role init' in its examples for consistency.
It might be worth doing a full search in the PDF for ansible-galaxy and make sure the same style is used when it deals with roles.

Under the last heading titled Managing Downloaded Roles, we should mention that these examples require the roles_path to be modified to include the roles subdirectory in the project folder. Or just add -p roles to these examples.
