Error is fatal: [sysname] =\> imported module support code does not exist at /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/ansible-1.6.6-py2.6.egg/ansible/module\_utils/splitter.py I have splitter.py installed in my user local dir, however, and the dir is set in PYTHONPATH, but Ansible does not pick it up. Is there an Ansible variable I can set to redirect its attention to the right place? I don’t think ansible\_python\_interpreter is it. Thanks ---

The documentation says: > Modules can be written in any language and are found in the path specified by or the `--module-path` command line option. [[http://docs.ansible.com/developing\_modules.html](http://docs.ansible.com/developing_modules.html) ] ---

This sounds like you have a crossed up install running a newer ansible against an older library path or something weird to me.
