RedHat 8.10 makes the bastion ansible-core installation to fail

[sdelabarre]

8.10 = 8.1 which is < 8.5 :

# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 8.10 (Ootpa)

# if [[ $(cat /etc/redhat-release | sed 's/[^0-9.]*//g') > 8.5 ]];
then echo "Yes > 8.5"; else echo "NO <= 8.5";
fi

Run :
NO <= 8.5

We need to find a better way...

This is in modules/1_bastion/bastion.tf

Cheers

We may use the redhat-release rpm instead, and use -gt instead of > .

I tested the following :

cat test.sh

if [[ $( rpm -q redhat-release | awk -F'-' '{print $3}' | sed -e 's/\.//g' ) -gt 85 ]]
     then echo "Yes > 8.5"
     else echo "NO <= 8.5"
fi

if [[ $(rpm --query notanrpm| awk -F'-' '{print $3}' | sed -e 's/\.//g' ) -gt 85 ]]
     then echo "Yes > 8.5"
     else echo "NO <= 8.5"
fi


if [[ $(echo "test-test-8.11" | awk -F'-' '{print $3}' | sed -e 's/\.//g' ) -gt 85 ]]
     then echo "Yes > 8.5"
     else echo "NO <= 8.5"
fi


if [[ $(echo "" | awk -F'-' '{print $3}' | sed -e 's/\.//g' ) -gt 85 ]]
     then echo "Yes > 8.5"
     else echo "NO <= 8.5"
fi

if [[ $(echo "test-test-8.5" | awk -F'-' '{print $3}' | sed -e 's/\.//g' ) -gt 85 ]]
     then echo "Yes > 8.5"
     else echo "NO <= 8.5"
fi

./test.sh

Yes > 8.5
NO <= 8.5
Yes > 8.5
NO <= 8.5
NO <= 8.5

@sydefree 8.10 = 8.1 which is < 8.5 this does not seem correct to me (do correct me if I missed something here).

I do agree @Prajyot-Parab in terms on versioning . BUT, in a decimal sh test it does.
