We've noticed that openafs was not getting upgraded to the PPA version on one of our opendev.org mirrors. Switch install of packages to "latest" to make sure it upgrades (reboots to actually apply change unresolved issue, but at least package is there). Also, while looking at this, reorder this to install the PPA first, then ensure we have the kernel headers, then build the openafs kernel modules, then install. Add a note about having to install/build the modules first. Change-Id: I058f5aa52359276a4013c44acfeb980efe4375a1 |

An ansible role to configure an OpenAFS client
Note
This role uses system packages where available, but for platforms or architectures where they are not available will require external builds. Defaults will pick external packages from OpenStack Infra builds, but you should evaluate if this is suitable for your environment.
This role configures the host to be an OpenAFS client. Because OpenAFS is very reliant on distribution internals, kernel versions and host architecture this role has limited platform support. Currently supported are
- Debian family with system packages available
- Ubuntu Xenial with ARM64, with external 1.8 series packages
- CentOS 7 with external packages
