Ansible 0.9 make rpm errors out

While trying to use make rpm to create a rpm for the latest ansible devel 0.9 for testing on a Scientific Linux 6.3 node, I got two errors:

  1. asciidoc package is requried to get the a2x command. But this is not explicitly listed in the requirements.
  2. make rpm fails with the error: error: package directory ‘lib/ansible/inventory/var_plugins’ does not exist
  3. is easy. 2. will take some time. I haven’t done packaging for a while. But if anyone has a hint ready, I would appreciate it.

just pushed a fix to the setup.py, "git pull --rebase"

asciidoc package is requried to get the a2x command. But this is not
explicitly listed in the requirements.

Because it's not a requirement to run Ansible.

It's a requirement to run 'make rpm'

Got you! Thanks for the lightingly fast fix. I was just about to get in pdb!

Confirmed. The fix works. Thanks for the clarification too.

Will use SL 6.3 to test out the sudo issue. I am still seeing it. Once I am done, if necessary I will open an issue.
