apt | update cache task fails with "NoneType is not iterable"

Closed this issue · 4 comments

Hello Chris,
first of all thank you very much for writing this Ansible role. I've been using it successfully for installing Chrome on a Debian Jessy machine and it works quite nicely.

The only thing which was a bit irritating is that from time to time the apt | update cache task failed with "NoneType is not iterable".

I've been able to work around this problem by simple setting update_cache=yes but since this is a bit hacky, I didn't want to send this "solution" as a PR.

Maybe you could have a look at this and come across a solution that is a bit more robust then mine.

Thanks again and keep up the good work!

Cheers,
Alex

What version of the role are you using? There was a fix in master (commit 261fb04) that may resolve your issue. Could you give it a shot and report back?

@adduc i ran into same problem. switching to install from git master (i was installing from latest release 0.2.1) fixed it.

@cmprescott could you tag a new release?

Done. Sorry took me so long to respond.
