Description of problem: Package python3-netapp-lib-2021.6.25-1.el8 installs into /usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages. The description of python3-netapp-lib states: Library to allow Ansible deployments to interact with NetApp storage systems. Package ansible-core-2.13.3-1.el8.x86_64.rpm installs into /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages. Therefore the EPEL/EL8 package python3-netapp-lib is incompatible with ansible-core on EL8. The same is true for python3-netapp-lib's dependency python3-xmltodict-0.12.0-6.el8 which also installs to python3.6 site-packages. There should be a package python39-netapp-lib and python39-xmltodict to be used with EL8's Ansible RPMs. python3-netapp-lib-2021.6.25-1.el8 -> https://packages.fedoraproject.org/pkgs/python-netapp-lib/python3-netapp-lib/epel-8.html ansible-core-2.13.3-1.el8.x86_64.rpm -> https://access.redhat.com/downloads/content/rhel---8/x86_64/7441/ansible-core/2.13.3-1.el8/x86_64/fd431d51/package Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): - ansible-core-2.13.3-1.el8.x86_64.rpm (this is ok) - python3-netapp-lib-2021.6.25-1.el8 (not ansible's python version) - python3-xmltodict-0.12.0-6.el8 (not ansible's python version) How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have RHEL 8 with BaseOS/AppStream and EPEL 8 repos 2. yum install ansible-core python39-requests python3-netapp-lib 3. ansible --version | grep "python version" 4. ansible localhost -m netapp.ontap.na_ontap_debug -a 'hostname=127.0.0.1 username=test password=test' Actual results: 1. 2. (packages installed) 3. ansible --version | grep "python version" -> python version = 3.9.13 (main, Nov 16 2022, 15:31:39) [GCC 8.5.0 20210514 (Red Hat 8.5.0-15)] 4. ansible localhost -m netapp.ontap.na_ontap_debug -a 'hostname=127.0.0.1 username=test password=test' -> (...) Error importing netapp-lib or a dependency: No module named 'netapp_lib'. Install the python netapp-lib module or a missing dependency. Additional diagnostic information: Python Executable Path: /usr/bin/python3.9. Python Version: 3.9.13 (main, Nov 16 2022, 15:31:39) \n[GCC 8.5.0 20210514 (Red Hat 8.5.0-15)]. (...) Ansible fails to load python netapp-lib. It is installed for Python3.6, but Ansible uses Python3.9. Expected results: 1. 2. yum install ansible-core python39-requests python39-netapp-lib # python39-netapp-lib! 3. ansible --version | grep "python version" -> python version = 3.9.13 (main, Nov 16 2022, 15:31:39) [GCC 8.5.0 20210514 (Red Hat 8.5.0-15)] 4. ansible localhost -m netapp.ontap.na_ontap_debug -a 'hostname=127.0.0.1 username=test password=test' -> "Other error for hostname: 127.0.0.1 using ZAPI: NetApp API failed. Reason - Unable to connect:(ConnectionRefusedError(111, 'Connection refused'),)." (Ansible netapp module works, but there is no netapp system on localhost) Additional info: Workaround is: 1. Have RHEL 8 with BaseOS/AppStream and EPEL 8 repos 2. yum install ansible-core python39-requests 3. pip3.9 install netapp-lib 4. (Ansible netapp modules work)
