Missing modules on Ubuntu 16.04 after apt install of Ansible

I followed the install instructions here to install Ansible on Ubuntu 16.04. There seems to be missing modules in this installation, here is an example:

`

user@server:~$ ansible localhost -m known_host

localhost | FAILED! => {

“failed”: true,

“msg”: “The module known_host was not found in configured module paths. Additionally, core modules are missing. If this is a checkout, run ‘git pull --rebase’ to correct this problem.”

`

How can I fix this? Can I pull the ansible git repo and point to the modules in the ansible cofig file?

Hii

Looks like you’ve made a typo.

The module is called known_hosts (plural).
