Ansible 1.7.2, sudo_user don't work properly

HI,
I had some problems with sudo_user switching. Config file not changed.
ansible 1.7.2

test.yml

Looks like setting “sudo_user” on a task doesn’t actively cause it to invoke sudo on that task. To me, I think it should.

Can you file a ticket on this if you are seeing this in Ansible 1.7.2 or later?

Thanks!

Hi Evgeny,

You've missed `sudo: yes` in a first task

`sudo: yes` is mandatory `sudo_user` doesn't enable 'sudoing'

Hi Igor,

Yes, I know it and I do it specially. I wanted to show results of both variants. And main problem showed in a second task.
