Thanks Michael. Yeah I didn't mean pip == apt but that the apt module in
ansible take a file like the pip module does.
Here is what I ended up with in case anyone else needs to do the same thing.
- name: Ensure all base system packages are installed
sudo: true
apt: pkg={{ item }} state=installed
with_lines: cat ../files/base-packages.txt
