Package: ansible
Version: 2.1.0.0-1
Severity: normal
I have the following rule in a role used by my playbook:
- name: free up disk space by removing apt package cache
shell: |
apt-get clean
This results in the following warning:
[WARNING]: Consider using apt module rather than running apt-get
Unfortunately, the apt module doesn't support a clean operation. The
checker emitting the warning is too eager. The workaround is to change
'apt-get' into 'apt-"get"', which is semantically equivalent to sh,
but hides the use of apt-get from the checker.
Note that this is different from #814371, which was about the fact
that the warning used to suggest the apt-get module.
