group_vars not found relitive to YAML file.

[seamustuohy]

The installation instructions for both ooni-backend and ooniprobe imply (through the path to install-ooniprobe.yml/install-oonibackend.yml) that they should be run from the root of the ooni-sysadmin repo. If done from the root of the repo the following error will occur.

TASK: [common | setup tor apt repo] ******************************************* 
fatal: [xx.xx.xx.xx] => One or more undefined variables: 'tor_distribution_release' is undefined

FATAL: all hosts have already failed -- aborting

This error occurs because ansible looks for the the group_vars folder relative to its YAML file. The error can be fixed by moving the group_vars folder into the ansible folder, or by placing a sym-link to it in the ansible folder.

Thanks for reporting this!
This has been fixed at #32.
There is no need for wide default group_vars.
