requirements.yml (excerpt)

  version: 5.4.0

# ansible-galaxy list -p ./roles/ | grep 'robertdebock.users'

Output

# ansible-playbook playbook.yml -i inventories/redacted/ --vault-password-file ~/.vault_pass.txt
ERROR! this task 'ansible.builtin.import_tasks' has extra params, which is only allowed in the following modules: ansible.windows.win_command, shell, win_shell, include_vars, ansible.windows.win_shell, import_role, script, meta, include, include_tasks, group_by, raw, include_role, command, import_tasks, win_command, add_host, set_fact

The error appears to be in '/git/ansible/roles/robertdebock.users/tasks/main.yml': line 4, column 3, but may
be elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.

The offending line appears to be:

- name: import assert.yml
  ^ here

after extended search for that eror and not finding something, i decided to completely reinstall my control machine. the error is gone now, i guess althoug showing ansible 2.10 installed, that an older version was still active. i will close the ticket now.
