Ansible 2.7.0 or newer is required.
Ubuntu (at least 20.04) ships with a buggy version (see this [bug](https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ansible/+bug/1880359)), which can't be used in combination with a host running new systemd (more detaisl in [#517](https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/issues/517), [#669]([669](https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/issues/669))). If this problem affects you, you can: avoid running Ubuntu 20.04 on your host; run Ansible from another machine targeting your host; or try to upgrade to a newer Ansible version (see below).

# Prerequisites
- An x86 server running **CentOS** (7 only for now; [8 is not yet supported](https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/issues/300)), **Debian** (9/Stretch+), **Ubuntu** (16.04+), or **Archlinux**. This playbook doesn't support running on ARM ([see](https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/issues/299)), however a minimal subset of the tools can be built on the host, which may result in a working configuration, even on a Raspberry pi (see [Alternative Architectures](alternative-architectures.md)). We only strive to support released stable versions of distributions, not betas or pre-releases. This playbook can take over your whole server or co-exist with other services that you have there.
