Topic

An updated Ansible package that fixes several bugs is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Extension modules can be written in any language and are transferred to managed machines automatically.

The Ansible packages have been upgraded to upstream version 2.4.1, which provides a number of bug fixes over the previous version. (BZ#1509360). In particular, it fixes a bug in the yum module (BZ#1508733).
