Python 3 is a slightly different language than Python 2 and some Python programs (including
|
|
|
|
|
Ansible) are not switching over yet. Ansible uses Python 2 in order to maintain compability with older distributions
|
|
|
|
|
such as RHEL 5 and RHEL 6. However, some Linux distributions (Gentoo, Arch) may not have a
|
|
|
|
|
Python 2.X interpreter installed by default. On those systems, you should install one, and set
|
|
|
|
|
the 'ansible_python_interpreter' variable in inventory (see :doc:`intro_inventory`) to point at your 2.X Python. Distributions

|
|

like Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS, Fedora, and Ubuntu all have a 2.X interpreter installed
