If you see that traceback in 1.7.1 (the latest release) please do file a
bug in GitHub so we can improve the split or make a better error message.
Let us know!
As a sidenote, this syntax is not neccessary, so a quick primer on
conditionals:
- include: '{{ include_before_symlink }}'
when: '{{ include_before_symlink != None }}'
At a basic level, you can drop the Jinja2 brackets, as that will result in
a string value that you don't want:
- include: "{{ foo }}"
when: include_before_symlink != None
OR (more simply, if you wish to only define it when it is to be used)
- include: "{{ foo }}"
when: include_before_symlink is defined
OR (if you just want to reply on the true/false value)
- include: "{{ foo }}"
when: include_before_symlink | default(False)
Defaults can also set in roles/rolename/defaults/main.yml, which make this
even nicer:
- include: "{{ foo }}"
when: include_before_symlink
