In my opinion, the depreciation warning should have never been added, as your
task will never stop working. It was more like a feature notification that you
can install multiple packages at once, which ansible does sometimes
automatically. In your case here, ansible does not automatically install all
the packages at once, so there's no warning that ansible will stop doing so in
a future release. In any case your playbook will continue to have the same end
result as it does today, with our without changes to squash this warning.

Re: [ansible-project] yum module gives "AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'strip'" on list of items
Hi Sebastian
Merging the lists indeed did the trick. Thanks for the suggestion!
However, I have another, related question; The next task in this
playbook is like this:
- name: Install extra packages required for plugins yum: name:
"{{ item.packages }}" state: "present" with_items: - "{{
default_plugins }}" - "{{ plugins | d(omit) }}" when:
item.packages is defined
And currently ansible even doesn't give a deprecation warning on this
task despite that I'm using a loop in combination with yum. And the
only difference I see is that i'm using {{ item.packages }} instead of
{{ item }} but I assume this will also deprecate ?How should I rewrite
this then ?
Thanks
Robin

Assuming base_packages and additional_packages are lists, try:
- name: install pkgs
yum:
state: present
name: "{{ base_pkgs + additional_pkgs | default([]) }}"
Ansible wants a flat list here. The suggestion in the deprecation
warning thinks both are just normal values and wants you to put them
into a list.
But if you already have lists, merge them with + as in the above code.

[ansible-project] yum module gives "AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'strip'" on list of items
Hi all
I'm currently trying to get rid of all deprecation warnings as we upgraded
Ansible 2.3 to 2.7.9 (CentOS 7.4)
And I have this code:
- name: Install required system packages
yum:
name: "{{ item }}"
state: 'present'
with_items:
- "{{ base_packages }}"
- "{{ additional_packages | d(omit) }}"
Which triggers the warning:
[DEPRECATION WARNING]: Invoking "yum" only once while using a loop via
squash_actions is deprecated. Instead of using a loop to supply multiple
items and specifying `name: "{{ item }}"`, please use `name: ['{{
base_packages }}', '{{ additional_packages | d(omit) }}']` and remove the
loop. This feature will be removed in version 2.11. Deprecation warnings
can be disabled by setting deprecation_warnings=False in ansible.cfg.
So I did exactly as I'm told and changed the yaml to:
- name: Install required system packages
yum:
name: ["{{ base_packages }}", "{{ additional_packages | d(omit) }}"]
state: 'present'
However instead of the expected profit, I now get this error:
fatal: [**]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "module_stderr": "Shared
connection to closed.\r\n", "module_stdout": "Traceback (most
recent call last):\r\n File

'strip'*\r\n", "msg": "MODULE FAILURE\nSee stdout/stderr for the exact
error", "rc": 1}
I checked on the control machine, there are no old versions of the modules
laying around. Also I tried using the package module, but that generates
exactly the same error.
Is this because, in this case, {{ additional_packages }} is empty ? If so,
how should I then handle this instead of d(omit) ?
Thanks!
Robin
