Um, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the pkg_* commands are
deprecated. Everybody is supposed to switch to the new package
manager, pkgng, which uses the single command 'pkg' with various
subcommands. FreeBSD 10 uses pkgng by default; on older versions, you
have to install it from the ports collection. And with the default
installation, you need to initialize the system. So the sequence goes
like this:
pkg # First time only; initializes the pkgng system. There
is a prompt asking if you want to proceed [y/N];
# don't know how ansible handles that. Fortunately
on my GreenQloud server this step has already
# been done; maybe other cloud providers do the same.
pkg install -y python py27-simplejson sudo
# The -y switch means to bypass the [y/N] prompt.
Also, I know Python 2.7 has a JSON library built in,
# but I thought I read somewhere in the ansible
docs that the third-party simplejson module was
# required.
