hi,

I don't think this is related to the apt module, but to how the
variable ends up being loaded. It seems to end up as a string, but not
as a sting in JSON format (which would be converted to a list), but in
Python format.

Without knowing how exactly you end up with the variable in this format.

(Also please note that both Ansible 2.4.x and 2.5.x are completely
outdated and End of Line.)

Cheers,
Felix
