Is there a yum repository associated with that work? Because I don't see it. Even if a yum channel is made available, it could get messy with EPEL still publishing ansible. ansible 2.6, without ansible-tower, is available in EPEL and should be able to resolve this dependency for this OpenShift channel. Unfortunately, as has come up before, ansible is also in the commercial, not the public, RHEL channels. A SIG that doesn't actually have a working yum channel doesn't seem to part of a normal solution for this, and expecting ansible managers to build their RPM's personally, locally does not seem to be a robust solution to the issue, especially as long as EPEL keeps publishing workable releases. (Good ones!!) If we like, I could write some time about how critical EPEL is to providing robust, usable RHEL and CentOS environments. But for getting ansible in the short term, I've found it's the way to go.
