Comment 1 for bug 1866079

The command that is executed during that task is:

ansible all -i {{ kolla_inventory_path }} -e ansible_user={{ ansible_user }} -m setup > /tmp/logs/ansible/initial-setup

Essentially, gathering facts.

Reproducing on a CentOS 7 box:

sudo yum -y install python-virtualenv gcc libffi-devel openssl-devel
virtualenv ansible-2.6
source ansible-2.6/bin/activate
pip install 'ansible<2.7' 'ara<1.0.0'
cat << EOF > ansible.cfg
[defaults]
callback_plugins = $(pwd)/ansible-2.6/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ara/plugins/callbacks
EOF
./ansible-2.6/bin/ansible localhost -m setup -e ansible_python_interpreter=$(which python) -vvvv

This fails:

pyfakefs 4.0.0 and 4.0.1 were released yesterday, apparently without python2 support. Looks like we need to pin.

pip install 'pyfakefs<4'

Now it works.

FWIW, without the ARA callback plugin config this works.
