ansible-role-sysctl's Issues

Add vars for Redhat.yml

Hi @chzerv when running on Centos 7 (distribution family - Redhat), sysctl_required_packages is not being set correctly.

Assume your task check is matching any instance of Redhat.yml in the playbook, adding a Redhat.yml to your vars directory should resolve the issue.

- name: Set distribution family specific variables.
  include_vars: "{{ item }}"
  with_first_found:
    - "{{ ansible_os_family }}.yml"
    - default.yml
