ansible against ubuntu 18.10 #417

Open ruebenramirez opened 5 years ago

ruebenramirez commented 5 years ago

ran into a problem today running ansible against an ubuntu 18.10 host. Python 3 is installed by default, but ansible still depends on Python 2.

This snippet can be added to the top of your playbook to ensure python 2 is available on your host so that ansible will run correctly against it:

- hosts: all
  gather_facts: False

  tasks:
  - name: install python 2
    raw: test -e /usr/bin/python || (apt -y update && apt install -y python-minimal)
