Hey,

Check this out: ansible=8.6.0-1ppa~jammy fails to install · Issue #77 · ansible-community/ppa · GitHub

Also for this kind of issue, it would be appreciated you share more info on your setup, like:

• Your distribution release ? With cat /etc/os-release or lsb_release -a for instance
• The exact command you ran to get your error output
• The Ansible version you’re trying to upgrade from

Anyways, package seems to be fixed in the next release .
