Since they both depend on library that cannot run on python2.4,
cf https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/15870, we can use
directly the python 2.6 syntax, as seen on the porting doc.
Due to ansible/jinja2 templating, it is difficult to use the monitor message template variables as they need to be surrounded by `{{` and `}}`, this change addresses that issue by allowing the user to use `[[` and `]]` instead.
The lvol module has a different logic in check-mode for knowing when a change is induced. And this logic is *only* based on a size check. However during a normal run, it is the lvreduce or lvextend tool that decides when a change is performed (or when the requested and existing sizes differ). So while in check-mode the module reports a change, in real run-mode it does not in fact changes anything an reports ok.
One solution would be to implement the exact size-comparison logic that is implemented in lvextend and lvreduce, but we opted to use the `--test` option to each command to verify if a change is induced or not. In effect both check-mode and run-mode use the exact same logic and conclusion.
Instead of doing an unpack, deliberately specify which parameters you
want to use. This allows us to flexibly add more parameters to the
f5_argument_spec without having to rewrite all the modules that use
it.
Functionally this commit changes nothing, it just provides for a
different way of accessing the parameters to the module
* refactor zypper module
Cleanup:
* remove mention of old_zypper (no longer supported)
* requirement goes up to zypper 1.0, SLES 11.0, openSUSE 11.1
* allows to use newer features (xml output)
* already done for zypper_repository
* use zypper instead of rpm to get old version information, based on work by @jasonmader
* don't use rpm, zypper can do everything itself
* run zypper only twice, first to determine current state, then to apply changes
New features:
* determine change by parsing zypper xmlout
* determine failure by checking return code
* allow simulataneous installation/removal of packages (using '-' and '+' prefix)
* allows to swap out alternatives without removing packages depending
on them
* implement checkmode, using zypper --dry-run
* implement diffmode
* implement 'name=* state=latest' and 'name=* state=latest type=patch'
* add force parameter, handed to zypper to allow downgrade or change of vendor/architecture
Fixes/Replaces:
* fixes#1627, give changed=False on installed patches
* fixes#2094, handling URLs for packages
* fixes#1461, fixes#546, allow state=latest name='*'
* fixes#299, changed=False on second install, actually this was fixed earlier, but it is explicitly tested now
* fixes#1824, add type=application
* fixes#1256, install rpm from path, this is done by passing URLs and paths directly to zypper
* fix typo in package_update_all
* minor fixes
* remove commented code block
* bump version added to 2.2
* deal with zypper return codes 103 and 106
