Hello, Can anyone tell me how do I upgrade Ansible v2.9.10 to 2.9.11 or 2.9.12 on RHEL 8? System is not connected to any subscription manager or repo. I use local repo. I cannot use PIP either. I downloaded ansible-2.9.11-1.el8.noarch.rpm but now need help on how to upgrade to this version. Where do i download 2.9.12 now that it’s released (rpm)? Thanks Jay ---

Ansible is a python module so you could install via pip like Rick showed. I am sure there are also rpm repos but last I checked I didnt see any specific for EL8. ---

Negelected one point. Pip upgrade is pip install --upgrade ansible==2.9.12 If you are ever unsure of what versions you could get, just stop after the ==. Pip will give an error message then list all possible versions. ---

Clearly I’ve over multi-tasked. You want to install but don’t have access to anything other than the RPM but you do have a local repo. You could either add the rpm to the local repo and dnf install using that repo or use `dnf install ansible-2.9.11-1.el8.noarch.rpm`. Dnf will report that you are removing the old version and updating to the new just like if you were loading from a repo. ---

Hello Rick, Ansible 2.9.12 has a serious bug in its cron module that has caused several problems for people, and many bug reports about it are open? Do you have plans to issue a new release of the 2.9 branch? I feel that you should not wait so long with a new release if there is a serious bug. Regards, Anand ---

Full ack! Because this regression is a real show-stopper I've added a backport patch in ansible package for openSUSE / SLE. [https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/systemsmanagement/ansible](https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/systemsmanagement/ansible) Ciao, Michael.
