I hate to sound like a broken record here, but could we please stop
claiming that ansible-core is included in ansible? It is a listed
requirement in the requirements.txt of the ansible package, but that
is really not the same thing as actually including any of the same
code or built in same compilation step. ansible-core can be installed
quite distinctly, for example by people who want to work around the
python 3.8 requirement for a RHEL 7 or RHEL 8 system and do this:
pip3 install --user ansible-core
# Installs ansible-core 2.11.8, for which EPEL has not
published an RPM yet, despite my publishing .spec files for it.
pip3 install --user ansible --nodeps
# Installs latest ansible, which works well with ansible-core
2.11 in smoke testing
I've updated my spec files for this for RHEL users, over at"
https://github.com/nkadel/ansiblerepo/
It has some other tweaks, such as gracefully handling the hundreds of
license and README files, and forcing "#!/usr/bin/python3" instead of
"#!/usr/bin/python" for consistency and successful RPM compilation.
