Hello @techzilla ,
thanks for the report.
Can you give more details ? like output log, role version, system version.

Thanks for the details.

@huxoll @techzilla You can set nginx_install_epel_repo to False, it may work as a temporary fix.
I don't know this system family, I will need someone else to explore that

And nginx_official_repo to True apparently also for the temporary fix.

In my case, it was user error. The yum sources were munged on the box, and nothing could install; nginx was just the first attempt.

Sorry for the noise.
