Yeah. For EPEL9, I hope to: * Make a 'ansible' package thats the collections in upstream 'ansible', minus any collections that are packaged seperately (either in rhel9 or epel9) and a 'ansible' metapackage. * Have that 'ansible' metapackage require all those collections and ansible-core, so when someone does 'dnf install ansible' they get hopefully pretty close to what upstream ansible is now. I'm not sure if there will be problems with that yet tho. ;) I'm hoping to basically do this for Fedora 36, so I should know more after that. kevin -- > > -Toshio > > On Thu, Sep 16, 2021, 7:20 AM Josh Boyer <jwboyer@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > On Thu, Sep 16, 2021 at 10:10 AM Leon Fauster > > <leonfauster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > > > > On 16.09.21 14:22, Josh Boyer wrote: > > > > On Wed, Sep 15, 2021 at 3:48 PM Kevin Fenzi <kevin@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > >> > > > >> Just a heads up that ansible-core (the engine part of ansible) is now > > in > > > >> CentOS stream 9: > > > >> > > > >> https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/rpms/ansible-core > > > >> > > > >> Note that this is the engine, you will likely want to install > > > >> collections for modules and roles, etc. > > > > > > > > For those that might not have followed how Ansible has been > > > > refactored, take a look at > > > > https://www.ansible.com/blog/ansible-3.0.0-qa > > > > > > > > ansible-core is the lowest level of the ansible stack and does not > > > > include many of the modules and plugins that those using ansible > > > > engine (ansible-2.9) might be used to.
