Facing Ansible bug & how to use the most recent Ansible branch with fixed code ?

[P]

Hi all,

I am trying to use Ansible vmware_guest module to clone template to VM but having the following issue:

}

MSG:

A specified parameter was not correct. 

spec.location.host

It is supposed to be fixed in https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/24768 as it says that:

"jctanner  merged 13 commits into ansible:devel from dagwieers:patch-44 7 days ago".

I installed Ansible yesterday using git clone from github so the fix should be there:

What tag/branch should I use to have the fixed code running ?

Best regards

[Brian Coca]

But in your error you were using (detached from v2.3.1.0-1)?

Sorry - I haven't sent any update but after I sent this post did the same test with devel branch and have the same error.

Raised a bug: https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/25967

Anyone experiencing the same bug ? Or not ?
