Does anybody know if it is possible to make the yum module a little bit 
dumber and stop it from merging packages in one request? I am trying to 
install

open-vm-tools

and

open-vm-tools-deploypkg

on a centos vm, playbook snippet below.

    - name: Install Standard Packages
      yum: state=present name={{ item }}
      with_items:
        - perl
        - wget
        - net-tools
        - open-vm-tools
        - open-vm-tools-deploypkg

This should in theory work, however the open-vm-tools-deploypkg doesn't 
install until open-vm-tools is on the system. I have reviewed the stdout 
and it places them into one yum install request and in the correct order. 
but still complains about the pre-requisite. If I seperate the 
open-vm-tools into another task then it works fine. I know its a minor 
thing but I would like to cut down the number of tasks as much as possible 
and was wondering if there is anything that can be done to stop it merging 
the request.

Thanks in advance.
