ansible

[Achim Gratz]

There was a request on IRC to update the ansible package.  I've had a
quick look, the tentative result is on the playground branch:

https://cygwin.com/git-cygwin-packages?p=git/cygwin-packages/ansible.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/playground

As mentioned by Yaakov, I switched over to ansible-core, updated the
patches and made some changes so that th CI would have a chance to build
the package.

Some of the necessary packages are missing for python39 so I had to keep
this at python37 and one (python37-straight.plugin) doesn't currently
exist at all.  The latter may not actually be needed anymore, but the
package build doesn't work anyway.  Someone with more knowledge of
python would need to look at where exactly the problem is (the
"packaging" module seems to be missing even though it's in the
BUILD_REQUIRES) and provide a fix.


Regards,
Achim.

Hi Achim,

which are missing for python39 other than paramiko ?
I built the python3x-straight.plugin and uploaded it.

Skipping the doc ansible builds with python39

The latter may not actually be needed anymore, but the

Documentation requires "Tools for building the Ansible Distribution"
https://pypi.org/project/antsibull/

so I think we need only for python39 and not for all versions
ok ?
