Hi!

Since the with_items are going to be deprecated and following the porting 
guide here: 
https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/porting_guides/porting_guide_2.7.html
I tried to rewrite some of my tasks where I am installing debian packages 
to use list format (which works with packages that come from a debian 
repository in the name parameter), but ran into an issue.

It seems that the deb parameter does not work with lists.

This is what I have (and works)

- name: Install local .deb-packages
  apt:
    deb: "{{ item }}"
    state: present
  with_items:
      - "/some/path/packet_A.deb"
      - "/some/path/packet_B.deb"

and this is what I tried to do (which fails)

- name: Install local .deb-packages
  apt:
    deb:
      - "/some/path/packet_A.deb"
      - "/some/path/packet_B.deb"
    state: present

Did I misunderstand something or is this an open issue in the apt module 
that needs to be fixed before deprecating the with_items variant?

Thanks for your help in advance!
