I get a deprecation warning when running the below task when using yum module with local install. The variable “packages” comes from vars/centos_6.yml
**** This Works but provides deprecated warning ****
-
name: Include vars for host distribution
include_vars: “{{ ansible_distribution|lower }}_{{ ansible_distribution_major_version }}.yml” -
name: Install the package
yum:
name: “/var/tmp/{{item}}”
state: present
when: ansible_os_family == ‘RedHat’
with_items: -
“{{packages}}”
TASK [install : Install the package] *****************************************************************
[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: "/var/tmp/{{item}}", please use name: ['{{ packages }}'] 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.
