Recommended way to install an Ansible Community Package

Debian 12/11

apt update
apt install ansible

Rocky Linux 9/8

dnf install ansible

openSUSE Leap 15

Ubuntu 24.04/22.04 LTS

Versions

If you choose the distribution package as described, you will get the following version of Ansible:

Distribution	Ansible Version
Debian 12	7.3.0
Debian 11	2.10.8
Rocky 9	7.7.0
Rocky 8	8.3.0
openSUSE Leap 15	2.9.27
Ubuntu 24.04	9.2.0
Ubuntu 22.04	2.10.8

On systems with outdated versions (such like openSUSE) you may prefer the installation via Python PIP:

1. Install the python3-pip distribution package
2. pip3 install ansible

Even this will not always get you the newest version, because newer Ansible versions require newer versions of Python!
