How to get it
-------------
Due to a limitation in pip, you need to uninstall Ansible 2.9 (or
earlier) before installing the 2.10 version:
$ pip uninstall ansible
$ pip install ansible==2.10.0a8 --user
The tar.gz of the release can be found here:

Caveats and known bugs
----------------------
[..]
* Due to a limitation in pip, you cannot `pip install --upgrade` from
ansible-2.9 or earlier to ansible-2.10 or higher. Instead, you must
explicitly `pip uninstall ansible` before pip installing the new
version. The install of the ansible package has been modified to warn
you if you attempt to upgrade via pip with instructions to uninstall
first.
