no longer out of the box usable with Ansible 2.17 #29

I'm getting this with my molecule tests now:

ansible_ansible.legacy.setup_payload.zip/ansible/module_utils/basic.py
SyntaxError: future feature annotations is not defined

Looks to be the Python shipping with bionic / included in the image is too old for Ansible 2.17, for more details see here.

I'm wondering, can the image be updated with a more recent Python version that allows out of the box usage with Ansible 2.17?

@wookietreiber - Not easily, unfortunately... the two options that are easiest are to upgrade systems to 20.04+, or to lock your Ansible version at a lower version. Since 18.04 is beyond LTS standard support, I have decided to move all my tests and systems to a base of 20.04 (with most now on 24.04).

Thanks for the reply, certainly the easiest option to drop support for out of LTS Bionic.
