I noticed there is a difference in how Ansible 1.5.5 handles this vs.
Ansible 1.6 Git May 1, 2014.
Ansible 1.6 Git is now including role variables in the hostvars scope. I
have one remaining issue
in 1.6 which is if the variable being referenced itself references another
variable, the ultimate value
is not being properly assembled.
slack_mir: 'rsync://slackware.cs.utah.edu'
slack_dir: 'slackware/slackware64-{{ slack_ver }}'
slack_url: '{{ slack_mir }}/{{ slack_dir }}'
alpine_sb_url: '{{ slack_url }}/source/n/alpine'
pkg: 'alpine'
When I reference as below, the final variable is not being properly
assembled
as seen in the Ansible 1.6 error message below.
{{ hostvars[inventory_hostname][pkg + '_sb_url'] }}
Ansible 1.5.5
