Hello everyone,

I was trying to loop through all my hosts and if a certain package (xauth in this case) was present it would create a list and email that list with this information:

If package was found:  
**HOSTNAME - PACKAGE\_NAME:VERSION**

If package was not found:  
**PACKAGE\_NAME Not Found on HOSTNAME**

I thought this would work but it does not.

package\_facts:  
manager: auto  
strategy: all  
ignore\_errors: True
