* Fix 'yum skips updates' bug
When the 'yum check-update' output is parsed, the regex used
to stitch wrapped lines together would fail on the first package.
It would fail because there is an empty line before the first
package, and this triggered the regex. To avoid a more complicated
regex, preprocess the check-update output to strip out any
empty lines.
The regex is also updated to include a group on the non whitespace
match to be used in the sub.
Add test cases based on info provided in the bug reports.
Fixes#20608
* Update validate-modules
* Validates ANSIBLE_METADATA
* Ensures imports happen after documentation vars
* Some pep8 cleanup
* Clean up some left over unneeded code
* Update modules for new module guidelines and validate-modules checks
* Update imports for ec2_vpc_route_table and ec2_vpc_nat_gateway
* Reenable yum install root tests
No need for sos to test installroot. Something with less deps works
just as well.
* Fix yum installroot.
Fix module import to use fail_json when the modules aren't installed.
Remove wildcard imports
* Lsat task is supposed to remove sos so make that happen
* Add --installroot to YUM and DNF modules, issue #11310
This continues ansible-modules-core#1558, and
ansible-modules-core#1669
Allow specifying installroot for the yum and dnf modules
to install and remove packages in a location other than /.
* Remove empty aliases
* Simpler installroot set default logic
The implementation is fairly simple, we force the rc= parameter to not be zero so that the check in _executor/task_result.py_ correctly determines that it failed. Without this change Ansible would report the task to be ok (despite failed=True and msg=Some_error_message) although Ansible stops and the summary output reports a failed task.
This fixes#4214, #4384 and also relates to ansible/ansible#12070, ansible/ansible#16006, ansible/ansible##16597, ansible/ansible#17208 and ansible/ansible#17252
Rather than just checking whether a package with the right
name is installed, use `local_nvra` to check whether the
version/release/arch differs too.
Remove `local_name` as it is a shortcut too far.
Fixes#3807Fixes#4529
* This keeps us from hitting bugs in repoquery/yum plugins in certain
instances (#2559).
* The previous is also a small performance boost
* Also in is_installed(), when using the yum API, return if we detect
a package name has been installed. We don't need to also check
virtual provides in that case. This is another small performance
boost.
* Sort the list of packages returned by the list parameter.
The yum module allows the 'name' parameter to be given as 'pkg', in
a similar way to some of the other package managers. This change
documents this alias.
The module's 'state' parameter has two other aliases, in line with
the 'apt' action; the 'state' parameter can take 'installed' as an
alias for 'present', and 'removed' as an alias for 'absent'. These
aliases are documented.
* Only install yum-utils if needed (b/c we're going to use repoquery)
* Add a warning message explaining that why slower repoquery was used
rather than yum API.
The message there is that Yum API prints an error message if the
rhn-plugin is in use and no rhn-certificate is available. So instead of
using repoquery in preference always here we use repoquery in preference
if the rhn-plugin is enabled.
