But this file does not exist.
I purged ansible and ansible-core, reinstalled and obtained the same
result. In fact upgrading or installing after purge does not change
anything.
It seems this symlink is not owned by any package, is it generated???
I did not have time to dig deeper, hope that helps.
And thank for the hard work, the split seems to be a real pain in the
ass to handle.
Regards.
