--- # Since Arch Linux is a rolling distribution, it regularly needs its packages upgraded, otherwise some tests might # stop working due to conflicts during package installation. Since there is no good way to do this on container # startup time, we use the setup_pkg_mgr setup role to do this once per CI run (hopefully). In case the Arch Linux # tests are run outside of a container, we're using a date-based tag (see below) to avoid this running more than # once per day. - name: Create tag copy: dest: /tmp/.ansible_archlinux_sysupgrade_tag content: | Last ArchLinux system upgrade by integration tests was done on {{ ansible_facts.date_time.date }}. register: archlinux_upgrade_tag - name: Upgrade all packages pacman: update_cache: true upgrade: true when: archlinux_upgrade_tag is changed
