Using role dependencies
=======================
Role dependencies let you automatically pull in other roles when using a role. Ansible does not execute role dependencies when you include or import a role. You must use the ``roles`` keyword if you want Ansible to execute role dependencies.

The play object is the parent of all roles, including roles called by a ``dependencies`` list.
