Hi all, we’ve released Ansible 1.6.1 to address to address a few bugs that were reported yesterday:

- Fixed a bug in group\_by, where systems were being grouped incorrectly.
- Fixed a bug where file descriptors may leak to a child process when using accelerate.
- Fixed a bug in the apt\_repository module, triggered by python-apt not being installed/available.
- Fixed a bug in the apache2\_module module, where modules were not being disabled correctly.

The new package is available via PyPi now, and as usually will be available via the various distributions official channels as soon as possible.

Thanks!

– James
