Broken with ansible-core 2.19

[hille721]

The CI fails for devel: https://github.com/hille721/ansible-variables/actions/runs/14318887435/job/41201960216#step:6:60 and so will also fail with the next ansible-core release 2.19

This is probably due to the massive changes in ansible-core related to data tagging: ansible/ansible#84621

Any news on this?

Hi @johanneskastl,

I did not looked into the issue so far. So I can't say if it is a low hanging fruit or if massive redesign of this package would be required.
Personally I don't use ansible-variables that often anymore as my Ansible projects don't have a large inventory anymore.
So if you or anyone else who is still interested to use it with ansible-core 2.19 could look into the issue for a first analysis of the problem would be really helpful
