I'm thinking of using specific versions for everything whenever I can. This

any given time.

With that said, I tried a very basic install of Apache and attempted to see
what it took to get this configured.

I started with:

tasks:
    - name: install apache2
      apt: name=apache2 state=installed update_cache=yes
      notify: start apache2

Then, to see the version installed:

me@server:~$ apache2 -v
Server version: Apache/2.4.18 (Ubuntu)
Server built:   2016-07-14T12:32:26

I figure, I should just specify the version in my playbook:

 tasks:
    - name: install apache2
      apt: name=apache2=2.4.18 state=installed update_cache=yes
      notify: start apache2

If you run a "apt-cache show apache2 | grep Version" you'll see that the version is longer, something like "2.4.18-2ubuntu3.1"

You'll need to specify the entire string or use wildcard, read more about wildcard in the comments to name here
