Should be Ansible 10.3.0 as its supported to EOL of Epiphany. Branch with update can be found here: https://github.com/seriva/epiphany/tree/ansible-upgrade
ansible-core 2.17 (ansible 10.x) is incompatible with RHEL 8 (due to Python 3.6 dnf bindings).
We have the following options: 1) Upgrade to Ansible 9 instead of 10 (ansible-core 2.16 works with Python 3.6) 2) Use unofficial packages to provide dnf bindings for Python 3.11 - they were created by a RedHat employee but hard to say if they will be updated and continuously available.

We decided to choose option 1.
Option 1 will fix all open CV issues and while the main Ansible package is EOL from November 2024, ansible-core will be supported till EOL Epiphany in May 2025
