Hello.

I’m learning Ansible and found that example on this page:

> **[Galaxy NG](https://docs.ansible.com/projects/galaxy-ng/en/latest/index.html)**
>
> Galaxy NG

does not work.

When I put inside of requirements.yml any yaml, ansible-galaxy trying to download pieces of yaml like it is a text file:

$ head requirements.yml

# from galaxy

- src: yatesr.timezone

$ ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml  
downloading role ‘timezone’, owned by -%20src%3A%20yatesr  
Sorry, - src: yatesr.timezone was not found on [galaxy.ansible.com](http://galaxy.ansible.com).

I’m running ansible 1.7.2+dfsg-1 from ubuntu 15.04.

What I’m doing wrong?
