I created an issue reporting what appears to me to be a bug in the fetch module -- the fetch module succeeds in grabbing the remote file and then always fails its checksum test if the remote user's login shell is set to /bin/tcsh -- but works when the remote user's login shell is set to /bin/bash.
I filed an issue along with simplified steps to reproduce: https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-core/issues/1297#event-300717455 The issue was closed (by a bot?) -- with a note pointing me at this list. Is this a user issue or a bug? I'm not seeing any documentation that implies that the remote_user's login shell needs to be bash ... Is that a requirement of ansible? This requirement is not described in the faq or any documentation that I find ... I can't think of anything about my bug report that implies this is a user support issue. The fetch module behavior is broken when the remote user's login shell is set to /bin/tcsh. That seems an awful lot like a bug to me ... I've been using ansible for awhile now -- usually the remote_user's login shell has always been bash -- but in some cases, some of these hosts have had their login shells changed and I can't necessarily immediately change them back to bash.
