After adding the cgroup patch and updating all packages, as described by Nate Coraor, it suddendly worked. I put the update tasks into a new playbook, which looked like this:

  • hosts: galaxyworkstation
    become: true
    become_user: root
    pre_tasks:

    • name: Update repos
      apt:
      update_cache: yes
      cache_valid_time: 900
      tags:

      • upgrades
    • name: Upgrade packages
      apt:
      upgrade: yes
      autoremove: yes
      notify:

      • reboot
        tags:
      • upgrades
    • name: Install other packages
      package:
      name:
      - acl
      - bc
      - sudo
      - make
      - build-essential
      - git
      - nano
      - vim-nox
      - vim-pathogen
      - emacs-nox
      - virtualenv
      - python3-pip
      - jq
      - htop
      - zlib1g-dev
      - libbz2-dev # planemo → samtools
      - liblzma-dev # planemo → samtools
      - tree
      - byobu
      - screen
      - cockpit # web console
      - moreutils # for gat-cli
      - silversearcher-ag # For @hexylena
      state: latest
      tags:
      - packages

    • name: Ensure unnecessary stuff is purged
      package:
      name:
      - python
      - fail2ban
      - snapd
      - emacs-lucid
      - emacs-gtk
      state: absent

    handlers:

    • name: update-grub
      command: /usr/sbin/update-grub
    • name: reboot
      reboot:

I hope this might help anyone at some point :slight_smile: Thanks for the help!
