Package: ansible
Version: 2.9.16+dfsg-1.1
Severity: important

Hi,
this ansible version ships with a broken symlink in
/usr/bin/ansible-connection pointing to:

flo@p5:/usr/bin$ ls -la ansible-connection
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 57 Jan  6 11:56 ansible-connection -> 
../lib/ansible/cli/scripts/ansible_connection_cli_stub.py

which does not exist. This connection for example
routeros targets fails with:

task path: /home/flo/projects/customer/routeros/playbook.yml:2
fatal: [ros1]: FAILED! => {
    "msg": "Unable to find location of 'ansible-connection'. Please set or 
check the value of ANSIBLE_CONNECTION_PATH"
}


I fixed it with:

flo@p5:/usr/bin$ sudo rm ansible-connection 
flo@p5:/usr/bin$ sudo ln -s 
../lib/python3/dist-packages/ansible/cli/scripts/ansible_connection_cli_stub.py 
ansible-connection
