Upgrading into 1.8.2 (from 1.6.x) produces the same behaviour for me.
I use:
vars_files:
- "vars/DEFAULTS.yml"
- "vars/{{ansible_system}}.yml"
- ["vars/{{ansible_distribution}}.yml", "vars/empty.yml"]
-
["vars/{{ansible_distribution}}_{{ansible_distribution_major_version}}.yml",
"vars/empty.yml"]
and it is not loading the correct files anymore, it loads just the
"vars/{{ansible_system}}.yml" and that's it.
