homebrew module loop deprecation warning about ansible-role-homebrew HOT 5 CLOSED

If I understood this correctly... it's not that looping won't be possible anymore. It's that squash_actions won't be used to condense the loop into a single action. You should still be able to loop over these packages with custom install options for each package. It just won't happen in a single brew install command.

To clarify, if you want to bypass this deprecation warning, consider investigating squash_actions until Ansible 2.11 is released.

Maybe the homebrew module needs to be removed from this list 🤷‍♂️

@geerlingguy Even attempting to override squash_actions triggers the deprecation warning. They want us to upgrade to use loop instead of with_X constructs. This will remove the deprecation warnings as a side-effect. See #112 for the fix.

Yeah... that's why I haven't fixed it in this role yet, because I'm not sure hwo to easily do that when changing the structure. Maybe call the task in a loop, but that feels all kinds of wrong.

So I guess... this would still work after 2.11? I was thinking something might break, but reading further, maybe it won't. And if not, for this role at least, I'm willing to live with the deprecation warning for a few versions.

I needed to rebuild my system, but I'll PR a config change to the ANSIBLE_SQUASH_ACTIONS setting to at least confirm that this warning can be safely ignored.
