l3d.acmetool_fix
Ansible Role: acmetool_fix
This is an Ansible role for installing acmetool
from a specific URL defined in the file defaults/main.yml
.
Purpose
This role is necessary for Debian Buster (Debian 10) since the version of acmetool
available in the Debian Buster repositories is outdated. We will be using packages from the Debian Sid (Debian Testing) repositories.
The role will be maintained until Debian Bullseye (Debian 11) is released, and a newer version of acmetool
is available.
Compatibility
This role works well with the do1jlr.acmetool role. Since it installs acmetool
manually, it is compatible with any Debian-based system until Debian Bullseye is released.
Testing
The role is tested using GitHub Actions across different versions of Linux systems. We use Travis CI for linting along with the ansible-lint action.
If you want to learn more about our testing methods, please check the GitHub Marketplace.
