Travis CI pip-based builds failing with Segmentation fault while gathering facts

[geerlingguy]

This happens on both Python 2.7 and 3.6, but does not happen on the ansible-container source build, for some reason. I also can't reproduce it on my local environment installing 0.9.2 from pip either :/

Example:

$ ansible-container --var-file vars-7.x.yml build --no-container-cache
Building Docker Engine context...	
Starting Docker build of Ansible Container Conductor image (please be patient)...	
Parsing conductor CLI args.
Docker™ daemon integration engine loaded. Build starting.	project=solr-container
Building service...	project=solr-container service=solr

For now, I think I'll just allow failures for the pip install method, since the main point of the tests is to make sure the ansible-container configuration works with master (and incidentally, I can prove it works with 0.9.2 locally too :P).

Possibly related? ansible/ansible#21562 (comment)

[geerlingguy]

I think I'll instead drop Ansible Container as a requirement.
