ansible.builtin.password generating invalid passwords

[Kathy L]

I am using ansible core version 2.14.3.  When I generate a username in the following fashion:

   set_fact:

     passwd: "{{ lookup('ansible.builtin.password', '/dev/null', chars=['ascii letters', 'digits'], length=range(10,15) | random ) }}"

I get usernames with colons in the middle of the password.  This has worked for over 6 months and we are just now seeing this error.  Can anyone see what I am doing wrong?

No, but things don't just change by themselves. If your invocation/task has not changed, the question becomes: what else has changed?

Something different, you specify 'ascii letters', but when i try that, it yields passwords with spaces in them. You might want to use 'ascii_letters'.

[Todd Lewis]

Your 'ascii letters' should be 'ascii_letters' (with an underscore); maybe that's throwing things off?

[Kathy Lyons]

Sorry, that was a typo on my part.  The real text was ascii_letters. Darn fat fingering.
