Deprecation warning in Ansible 2.7 about ansible-role-pip HOT 6 CLOSED

I don't believe anything needs to be done about this. I can see ways that this task could be improved, but since it is allowing either a dict/hash/map or just a string, it is probably best written like this instead of complicated filter logic.

The warning is basically stating that squashing the loop into a single invocation of the pip module will no longer happen in 2.11. This task will continue working, it may just be slower in the future, as it will invoke pip for each item in the loop.

The comment above clarifies some additional things that I was going to add here as well.

@sivel thanks for clarifying. I think I'll leave this issue open until 2.11 anyways, just so people bumping into it have a reference point.

Still don't know what to do for this.

According to some internal chatter, it sounds like the task will still work in 2.11, it just won't 'squash' all the loop items into one execution of the task. So instead of installing like:

pip install package1===1.2.3 package2===2.3.4

It would install like:

pip install package1===1.2.3
pip install package2===2.3.4

If that's the case, this doesn't seem like a big deal to me; the convenience of easy control over all the pip package install parameters (per package) is more important than task execution time (considering most of my playbooks maybe install 2-3 packages total, not hundreds).
