It's definitely a problem with ansible dnf builtin. Can you raise a issue in the below community link ?

Hello
I've updated libsolv and no more "Memory fault".
I'm still unable to install a package but I've been able to execute a dnf update by using ansible :

The "--debugsolver" issue is fixed in the recent libsolv rpm.
As far as the other main issue is concerned, I think the dnf plugin is somehow tied with the controller's arch or something. So it's not listing the packages for AIX.

Hello Peter.
thanks you for confirming me I'm not crazy
I made some tests with 2 ansible controllers, one with python3.9, the other one with python3.11.
Both are redhat 8 servers.
Results : same problem.
If you run dnf --debugsolver install something, I get a Memory Fault(coredump) too.
So I think we have 2 problems : debugsolver and dnf from ansible.
Could someone from IBM have a look one the first problem ? coredump where debugsolver is enable.
It could help solving the second one.
Thanks

I have the exact same issue. I recently installed a new AIX 7.2 TL5 SP5 system, and got this error the first time I tried install Toolbox packages via Ansible. dnf install something works fine, the dnf or package module claims that the package doesn't exist. Since both use the same DNF Python libraries I can only assume that Ansible is somehow passing invalid data.
I did try setting debug_solver=true in dnf.conf to see what libsolve was being asked to find, but it just makes Python crash with a memory fault.

Hello
I've a weird problem with dnf and ansible.
Playbook :
- hosts: all

I get that error :
fatal: [stha20090]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "failures": ["No package jq available."], "msg": "Failed to install some of the specified packages", "rc": 1, "results": []}
