Package: ansible Version: 12.0.0+dfsg-0+deb13u1 Severity: wishlist X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer, I think it would be useful for Debian users to have a README.Debian file that explains how maintainers of the Ansible package expect the included Ansible tooling to be used, when installed from the official Debian repositories. In particular, I think such inclusion would be justified if it's taken into account that (to the best of my knowledge) Ansible package in Debian: 1) It doesn't ship with a default global Ansible configuration file (e.g: /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg). 2) It doesn't ship with a default setting for the Ansible inventory file location. This bug is not aimed to criticize the way Ansible is packaged in Debian but rather to simply ask for the inclusion of a text file with, may be, a quick how-to on getting started using Ansible in Debian and some clarification on the points mentioned above. Thanks. Cheers. -- System Information: Debian Release: 13.6 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.12.100+deb13-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages ansible depends on: ii ansible-core 2.19.4-0+deb13u1 ii openssh-client 1:10.0p1-7+deb13u4 ii python3 3.13.5-1 ii python3-dnspython 2.7.0-1 ii python3-httplib2 0.22.0-1 ii python3-jinja2 3.1.6-1 ii python3-netaddr 1.3.0-1 ii python3-yaml 6.0.2-1+b2 Versions of packages ansible recommends: pn python3-argcomplete <none> ii python3-cryptography 43.0.0-3+deb13u1 pn python3-jmespath <none> pn python3-kerberos <none> pn python3-libcloud <none> pn python3-selinux <none> pn python3-winrm <none> pn python3-xmltodict <none> Versions of packages ansible suggests: pn cowsay <none> ii sshpass 1.10-0.1 -- no debconf information
