update package manager before installing nginx

[vjpr]

This role didn't work out of the box for me because I needed to run sudo apt-get update.

Should this be incorporated in this role, or should it be in my playbook?

What is your distribution ? ( Debian, Ubuntu or other Debian Derivate )
What's the last time you made an "apt-get update" in your system ? (if it's old, it's not the role of this role to update that for you, it's more in your playbook or an apt role to do that)
If it's recently, the problem was encounted with nginx_official_repo activated ?

FYI this role is automatically runned in a fresh ubuntu VM by travis at each commit.

It was a fresh Ubuntu 14.14 on amazon ec2.

Can you install other apps or it only fail with nginx ?
In the first case, you should add "sudo apt-get update" in the playbook (or made it with an another role)

If you have ansible >= 1.9 you can use update_cache=yes in the tasks installing the packages, maybe It could be a good idea to have a release for versions later than 1.9, where this problem is trivial to solve.
