All:

After installing ansible using pip on an Ubuntu 16.04 system with python 3.5 results in the following error: ERROR! Unexpected Exception, this is probably a bug: (cryptography 1.2.3 (/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages), Requirement.parse(‘cryptography>=1.5’), {‘paramiko’})

Here are my installation steps:

apt-get update apt-get install python3.5-minimal easy_install3 pip ansible --help

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Well I got it to work with the following command:

`
pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall --no-cache-dir ansible

`

Some kind of caching issue?

Thank you. This saved me from reinstalling WSL :slight_smile:
