In light of the recent glibc issue. I've been trying to use ansible to 
query the installed version of glibc, can anyone suggest something I might 
be missing here.

Option 1: ansible all -m yum -a "list=installed"

Unfortunately the list option to the yum module doesn't seem to accept any 
further arguments and hence can only return all installed packages. Not 
ideal. The output is nice though as it's JSON with lots of information.


Option 2: ansible all -a "rpm -q glibc"

Works but it feels like this would be a useful thing to be able to do via 
the package modules?

This is similar in the salt world:
