We want to stay current with the stable branch for ansible and the 
dependencies we use.  We're a mostly Windows shop using WinRM with AD 
credentials, so we need...

pywinrm
pykerberos
ansible
anything those need (crypto, etc.)

We are using CentOS 7.3.1611 (latest).  Should we do a yum install of 
ansible or pip install?  We've noticed there are differences such as the 
pip install doesn't create the ansible.cfg and the yum install doesn't have 
latest packages for things like python-winrm (pywinrm, I assume).  Assuming 
that package is python-winrm-0.2.1.3-el7.noarch?  If so, it's out of date, 
as pywinrm is actually at 0.2.2 now.

I assume this is the tradeoff of going with the OS vendor packages, a more 
"stable" release and package designed specificall for that distro, but 
slower updates.  We've seen some bug fixes or features that make it so we 
want to stay on latest stable code, though, so should we just switch to all 
pip install and figure that out?

Assuming your vote is to go directly to pip, is there an up-to-date 
document that shows a full pip install, including ansible.cfg generation 
and things that are left out of the official ansible documentation?
