In the yum module, remove hard dependency for repoquery. (for speed
optimization)
Run:
- name: verify sudo,ntp,iotop is latest
action: yum name={{ item }} state=latest
with_items:
- sudo
- ntp
- iotop
when: ansible_os_family == "RedHat"
and then run the same with regular yum install sudo ntp iotop
It would be very nice actually get this task completed much faster.
Actual Results:
Yum now takes a very long time and its because of repoquery depenency,
there has been various people asking why this is,
some resolve it by running yum from command: module.
Others create an alternative module:

described in the blogpost, speed)

here Michael suggested he's changed his mind about requiring repoquery, and
that its worth revisiting.
For me managing 100 servers all with yum module, a run takes almost 2hours
to complete, and 90% of the time spent is with the yum module.
