Not sure what "it still does not work" refers to.

So my first question is, which is the stable release now?

0.7.2

Because somehow in http://ansible.cc/docs/gettingstarted.html is a ppa
menioned for ubuntu https://launchpad.net/~rquillo/+archive/ansible

That one mentiones 0.7.2. But in the git repository

https://github.com/ansible/ansible/downloads

There is only ansible-0.7.1.tar.gz mentioned. So which source code should I
take now, to build a rpm of the current stable release of ansible. Please
point me directly to the code I shall take. Thanks a lot...

Probably because 0.7.2 didn't really warrant an official release.

0.8 comes out tonight, for what it's worth.

Hi,

So 0.8 is released now, I will start with that. Here is what I did:

Configure EPEL repo

wget ‘http://ftp-stud.hs-esslingen.de/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm’
rpm -ivh epel-release-5-4.noarch.rp

Get the newest release from [https://github.com/ansible/ansible/downloads here], and unpack it.

yum install python26 python26-PyYAML python26-paramiko python26-jinja2 rpm-build asciidoc libxslt git
cd ansible-
echo > VERSION

Version was at this time 0.8.

Change the python to python26:

# grep -ri python26 * | grep -v rpm-build
Makefile:SITELIB = $(shell python26 -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; print get_python_lib()")
Makefile:all: clean python26

I am able to download with wget http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/manpages/docbook.xsl, but somehow the a2x fails here. No rpm for centos 5 so far ;o)

Thanks for your help
