update to ansible appears to have broken required functionality - setup delegate_facts

I am running ansible on CentOS 6.8. This morning I ran yum update and got updated to a new version

Updating : ansible-2.2.1.0-1.el6.noarch

Unfortunately this appears to have broken my working ansible script. In particular, the task

  • name: Gather info about consul servers
    setup:
    delegate_to: “{{item}}”
    delegate_facts: True
    when: “{{hostvars[item][‘ansible_default_ipv4’] is not defined}}”
    with_items: “{{consul_servers}}”

while it runs commands against each of the three hosts defined in the list {{consul_servers}}, it only updates the hostvars for the first host. The second and third hosts are not set up with their associated ansible_* variables in hostvars.

This worked yesterday but not today.

First, is it possible that today’s update changed this behavior?

Second, is there a workaround - this functionality is critical for my script.

Did you find a solution to this? I’m having the same issue on the same version, ansible 2.2.1.0.

nvm, found a bug report on this issue here:

https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/20980

I’ll update that ticket with my feedback.
