Description Nick Coghlan 2015-05-28 08:42:27 UTC

By default, Ansible in Fedora 22 hits this problem with its dnf module: https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-extras/issues/471

The Ansible yum module can't be used either, as that attempts to import the yum *Python* API, which dnf doesn't even try to emulate.

This means that while this problem can be worked around if you have a way of bootstrapping yum-utils onto the system, you're stuck if you're using Ansible itself to do the bootstrapping.

Comment 1 Kevin Fenzi 2015-05-28 11:41:06 UTC

Yes, we are aware. ;) 

Toshio backported the fixes he has for the dnf module and pushed a rawhide build already. 

He was going to push builds to all other branches soon. 

You can in fact still use the yum module, but you of course need to install yum and yum-utils for that, and it has some corner cases. 

Look for an f22 update to test soon...

Comment 3 Toshio Ernie Kuratomi 2015-05-29 18:42:17 UTC

Hey Nick!  Please test that build (or one of the builds for the other Fedora/RHEL releases).  The person on the bug report didn't explicitly say this worked so I'd love to have some confirmation that this solves the problems.  Thanks!

Comment 4 Fedora Update System 2015-05-30 15:56:18 UTC

Package ansible-1.9.1-2.fc22:

Comment 5 Nick Coghlan 2015-06-02 08:19:34 UTC

Looks good here:

$ rpm -qa ansible
ansible-1.9.1-2.fc22.noarch

$ ansible localhost -m dnf -a "name=ansible state=latest"
localhost | success >> {
    "changed": false, 
    "msg": "", 
    "rc": 0, 
    "results": [
        "All packages providing ansible are up to date"
    ]
}

ansible-1.9.1-2.fc22 has been pushed to the Fedora 22 stable repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
