Hi All

Request your help on where to put the debug statement

Requirement 1:
If a package is missing the output should be like “Package {{ package name }} missing”

When debug is used the task name does not display instead the task is named as “debug”

TASK[Check the required OS Packages are installed] is not displayed when using debug
TASK [debug] Display this as a task name
