Debian testing doesn't support aufs..

[hvisage]

And therefore the linux-image-extra-{{ansible_kernel}} barfs on it :(

hmmm, without aufs the docker images directory quickly gets ridiculously large.

Do you know if ansible_distribution_release is "testing" for this version? if it is then we can just create a new file in vars/ called debian-testing.yml that doesn't include the linux-image-extra package.

thanks for that warning about growth :(

How do I check the version/etc. that Ansible reports for that server/instance?

[marklee77]

I use the ansible setup module: "ansible -m setup -i myinventory.ini all"

Is there a vagrant image available for debian testing? If there is then I can figure out what changes need to be made.

        "ansible_distribution": "Debian",
        "ansible_distribution_major_version": "stretch/sid",
        "ansible_distribution_release": "NA",
        "ansible_distribution_version": "stretch/sid",
               "ansible_kernel": "4.0.0-2-amd64",
 "ansible_lsb": {
            "codename": "stretch",
            "description": "Debian GNU/Linux testing (stretch)",
            "id": "Debian",
            "major_release": "testing",
            "release": "testing"
        },

hmmm, the "/" is going to be problematic since we can't have a file named "debian-stretch/sid.yml" and "debian-na.yml" does seem appropriate. The best I can think of is to modify the code in tasks/main.yml to replace the "/" with a "_". Then we could have debian-stretch_sid.yml in the vars/ directory. Does that make sense?

Hmmm, jesse and wheezy were having problems too, so I changed it so that while ubuntu installs the kernel extras, debian doesn't.

[hvisage]

That might be backport related, isn't it?

I'm not sure how debian is organized internally. Does the role deploy correctly for you now?
