Parts of this are duplicating a lot of modules we already have in many  
ways (apt, yum, apt key, apt add repository, etc) so I would be very  
tempted to see if this could just be a playbook or a task include file  
for those parts, and then maybe the last part remains a custom module.

Though really I think I'd be inclined to download it and put it in a  
yum repo, or just copy the content locally and use get\_url with it,  
followed up by command to run the binary installer.

You could use facts to help with selecting the right thing to run, and  
conditionals to choose yum/apt as needed be if you wanted.
