Got a better output when added *stdout_callback = yaml* to the ansible.cfg However the output lengthy line remains the same .
No luck when tried to split() also . It has multiple sub-elements which is making it complex . As mentioned initially , I need to break the output like below. Extension Message: Patching Successful.
