Hello,

Ansible issue [22169 - Roles are ran multiple times if both referenced as dependency and from playbook](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/22169) is claimed to be fixed but the bug is still present in Ansible 2.6.3. I posted a [“working” example](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/22169#issuecomment-418375170) " but cannot re-open the ticket. I would like to request assistance as this is a problem for our company.

Thanks and regards,  
Kay
