The content of
dnf_automatic_systemd_timeranddnf_automatic_package_nameis dependant on the specific version of dnf installed on the host. But ansible only renders the task name globally (once) per task by targeting a host (seemingly at random?). The content of the names can be surprising in multi-os environments, and even lead to errors.When running this role like this:
and targeting no RedHat based hosts (such as via -l) this leads to template errors:
because ansible will still try to render each task in the role even though it is displayed as disabled for every host.
Additionally when running this role on dnf4 and dnf5 mixed environments the name is just random.
