Comment (by adfernandes@…):

 Replying to [comment:11 blair@…]:
 > So to confirm, you're saying the 1.9.2 release is broken and has
 critical bugs in it? The tarball isn't self-contained?

 No, the tarball is '''not''' self-contained. You ''cannot'' install a
 working ansible from the tarball. Period.

 In functionality, it is unclear if the 1.9.2 release is broken or not.
 Following the github bugtracker, some commit messages indicate that
 critial bugs are being patched, but they only have a "devel" branch.
 Tagging is unclear. The devs constantly refer to a "v2.0" release, which
 they then say "is really the current v1.9, just a few commit ahead."

 My suggestion is the following:
 * base the port off of the `v1.9.2-1` github tag.
 * use `fetch.type git` to pull the repo
 * make sure you initialize the submodules (my patch, lines 44-46)
 * make sure to change the `reinplace` filter (line 50)

 I ''think'' ansible is keeping the 1.9.x branch maintained; they just
 tagged a `v1.9.3-0.1.rc1` four days ago. Judging by past commit logs, the
 final 1.9.3 won't be out for a month or more. So, it looks like 1.9.2 is
 maintained...
