While this may not be the cause of your issues, the following is (or will
be) an issue for you.
- name: ensure joe is installed yum
apt: name=joe state=latest
when: ansible_os_family == "CentOS" or ansible_os_family == "Fedora"
change to:
- name: ensure joe is installed yum
yum: name=joe state=latest
when: ansible_os_family == "CentOS" or ansible_os_family == "Fedora"
