Hi all, we’re happy to announce that RC2 for 2.1.0 is now available for testing. This updated release candidate fixes several bugs from RC1, including (but not limited to): - Fixed several bugs related to the new ziploader method of executing modules on remote systems. - Fixed several bugs in strategies and with task iteration. - Fixed a bug where “meta: refresh\_inventory” was failing due to a host filtering pattern - Fixed a bug where blocks with an “always” portion but no “rescue” were improperly continuing after a failed task in the block. - Fixed a bug with the combined use of set\_fact and run\_once. - Fixed retry/until logic, where a task succeeding on the last iteration of the retry would still be marked as failed regardless of success. How do you get it? ---

There are several ways to install it with pip before it’s released on PyPi, ie.: pip install [https://github.com/ansible/ansible/archive/v2.1.0.0-0.1.rc1.tar.gz](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/archive/v2.1.0.0-0.1.rc1.tar.gz) # Or install in editable mode (best): pip install -e git+https://github.com/ansible/ansible.git@[v2.1.0.0-0.1.rc1](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/releases/tag/v2.1.0.0-0.1.rc1)#egg=ansible Also, GJ ! Awesome release, I love it ! ---

Scratch the first one, it doesn’t get the submodules, use the second line which works, don’t forget to install git 😉 ---

Hi, > $ git clone [https://github.com/ansible/ansible.git](https://github.com/ansible/ansible.git) > $ cd ansible > $ git checkout v2.1.0.0-0.2.rc2 > $ git submodule update --init The tag “v2.1.0.0-0.2.rc2” is missing in the github repo. Latest tag is “v2.1.0.0-0.1.rc1”. ---

Hi Bernhard, sorry about that. That’s been fixed now.
