I have simple playbook where trying to install the Debian packages

install the Debian packages in the same system. But this playbook gives an error *"Dependency is not satisfiable* for some of the packages even tough

the dependency package is available in the local repository.

Sometimes the best solution is to use the commands.

*install_dependencies.yml*

- hosts: localhost
  vars:
    remote_media_directory: "/home/local_repository"
  become: yes
  tasks:
    - name: find all debian Packages
      find:
         paths:
             - "{{ remote_media_directory }}"
         file_type: file
         recurse: yes
         use_regex: yes
         patterns:
           - '.*deb$'
      register: files_matched_subdirectory

    - name: installation debian packages
      apt:
        deb: "{{ item.path }}"
      with_items: "{{ files_matched_subdirectory.files }}"
      when: ansible_distribution == "Ubuntu"

Both tasks can be replaced by this

- command: dpkg -iR {{ remote_media_directory }}
