Ansible on Freebsd with pkgng

[Laurentius Purba]

Hello all,

I have question regarding pkgng for FreeBSD.

The idea is I was trying to update php on one of our development servers. The current php version installed is 5.4.28, while we have on the port (/usr/ports/lang/php5) is 5.4.34.

Below is the playbook that I have:

- hosts: 10.0.21.99

  remote_user: jdoe

  sudo: yes

  tasks:

    - name: Upgrade php5

      pkgng: name=lang/php5 state=present cached=yes

From the command line, I executed the following with the output:

$>  ansible-playbook /etc/ansible/config/roles/common/tasks/php-upgrade.yml -K

sudo password: 

PLAY [10.0.21.99] ************************************************************* 

GATHERING FACTS *************************************************************** 

ok: [10.0.21.99]

TASK: [Upgrade php5] ********************************************************** 

ok: [10.0.21.99]

PLAY RECAP ******************************************************************** 

10.0.21.99                 : ok=2    changed=0    unreachable=0    failed=0

My question is, why I cannot upgrade my php version from what is install 5.4.28 to 5.434, even though I already use the cached=yes option.

Thanks for your help, guys.

Hi Laurentius,

other package manager modules (i. e. 'apt') support a `state=latest`
option for upgrading already installed packages.

According to the docs the pkgng unfortunately doesn't support the
`latest` option for the `state` parameter.

I don't know much about how pkgng works but maybe you can upgrade PHP if
you uninstall the package first and afterwards re-install it. I don't
have a FreeBSD box here, so I can't test it now…

- hosts: 10.0.21.99
remote_user: jdoe
sudo: yes
tasks:

- name: Uninstall php5
pkgng: name=lang/php5 state=absent
- name: Install php5
pkgng: name=lang/php5 state=present cached=no

If it makes sense, I'd be quite open to whatever it takes to make 'latest' work here.

It is, I will say, not a primary OS for us -- but it's one we're definitely committed to enabling development on.
