To create an Ansible DEB package:
sudo apt-get install python-paramiko python-yaml python-jinja2 python-httplib2 python-setuptools python-six sshpass
sudo apt-get install cdbs debhelper dpkg-dev git-core reprepro dh-python fakeroot asciidoc devscripts docbook-xml xsltproc libxml2-utils
git clone git://github.com/ansible/ansible.git
cd ansible
make deb
The debian package file will be placed in the ../ directory. This can then be added to an APT repository or installed with dpkg -i <package-file>.
Note that dpkg -i does not resolve dependencies.
To install the Ansible DEB package and resolve dependencies:
sudo dpkg -i <package-file>
sudo apt-get -fy install
Or, if you are running Debian Stretch (or later) or Ubuntu Xenial (or later):
sudo apt install <package-file>
