This does not look like an error related to the DO collection. Are you only having problems with this collection?

[lousyd]

Good lead. I am having problems with other collections. This must be a problem with...... I don't know. ansible-galaxy itself?

[tadeboro]

This sounds like a problem with ansible itself (https://github.com/ansible/ansible), so may want to file an issue there. Also, you should visit the #ansible channel on libera IRC network where you can get some real-time help from other community members (https://web.libera.chat/).

[lousyd]

Thank you.

[codeguy]

@lousyd Did you discover a solution? Just ran into this same issue this morning. Latest Ansible installed via pip on ubuntu 20.04.

[codeguy]

Just found the issue for any other folks that stumble upon this thread. Latest Ansible requires a specific version of resolvelib (<0.6.0 to be exact). Fix with this command:

sudo -H pip install -Iv 'resolvelib<0.6.0'

Details here:

https://bugs.gentoo.org/795933

[tadeboro]

Ansible devs did properly bound the resolvelib version in https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/requirements.txt, which should make sure the right version of the resolvelib is installed. @codeguy Did you install it into a fresh venv or did you install it globally (which is probably a bad idea)?

[lousyd]

I don't recall exactly what it was I did to resolve the issue, but I do see a python3 -m pip install --upgrade ansible in my bash history, just before my last attempt at installing the collection. And it is successfully installed now. So... maybe that did it? I don't recall for sure. Sorry.

[bearcodi]

@codeguy solution worked for me, definitely seems to be more of an issue with ansible-galaxy, was trying to use the community.docker extension.

My OS:

Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
Release:    22.04
Codename:   jammy
Python:     3.10.4
Ansible:    2.12.5

[rdvansloten]

@codeguy solved this for me too. It does require the resolvlib to be downgraded to 0.5.4. I had 0.8 installed, which caused this bug.

[DanVanAtta]

This is still a problem with a fresh install of Ubuntu 22.10. The below includes the manual downgrade of resolvelib & works (without the manual downgrade, this issue is reproduced):

sudo apt install -y pip
pip install ansible-core
pip install -Iv 'resolvelib<0.6.0'
ansible-galaxy collection install community.general

I opened an issue with ansible.

[dannyman]

@DanVanAtta, if you could be so kind as to share a link to the issue you opened with Ansible? Thanks!

[Valath]

I fixed it with the below commands.

sudo apt install -y pip;
pip install -Iv 'resolvelib<0.6.0';
ansible-galaxy collection install community.windows;

[MaxiReglisse]

Same thing in my case to install checkmk.general.

root@nfs1-server:~# ansible-galaxy collection install checkmk.general
Starting galaxy collection install process
Process install dependency map
ERROR! Unexpected Exception, this is probably a bug: CollectionDependencyProvider.find_matches() got an unexpected keyword argument 'identifier'

Installing resolvelib solved the problem!

pip install -Iv 'resolvelib<0.6.0';

OS/Environment

Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS
ansible [core 2.12.9]
python version = 3.10.12
jinja version = 3.0.3

[oscarparzival]

Encountered the same problem when trying to install checkmk.general, just like @MaxiReglisse. ansible-galaxy collection install checkmk.general, which failed because of for example: TypeError: CollectionDependencyProvider.find_matches() got an unexpected keyword argument 'identifier'.

I first used apt install ansible-core, however, after removing it and installing apt install ansible, the installation of checkmk.general succeded.

Thanks !
