Hi,

I’m trying to create a symlink:

file: src=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/{{ item.src }} dest=/usr/lib/ state=link force=yes
with_items:

  • { src: ‘libz.so’}
  • { src: ‘libfreetype.so’}
  • { src: ‘libjpeg.so’}

and I get:

“the directory /usr/lib/ is not empty, refusing to convert it”

try:

file: src=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/{{ item.src }} dest=/usr/lib/{{ item.src }} state=link force=yes
