This commit updates multiple roles to ensure compatibility with Ansible 2.20.
Several include paths and task-loading mechanisms required adjustments,
as Ansible 2.20 applies stricter evaluation rules for complex Jinja expressions
and no longer resolves certain relative include paths the way Ansible 2.18 did.

Key changes:
- Replaced legacy once_finalize.yml and once_flag.yml with the new structure
  under tasks/utils/once/finalize.yml and tasks/utils/once/flag.yml.
- Updated all include_tasks statements to use 'path_join' with playbook_dir,
  ensuring deterministic and absolute file resolution across roles.
- Fixed all network helper includes by converting direct relative paths such as
  'roles/docker-compose/tasks/utils/network.yml' to proper Jinja-evaluated paths.
- Normalized MATOMO_* variable names for consistency with the updated variable
  scope behavior in Ansible 2.20.
- Removed deprecated patterns that were implicitly supported in Ansible 2.18
  but break under the more strict variable and path resolution model in 2.20.

These changes are part of the full migration step required to ensure the
infinito-nexus roles remain stable, deterministic, and forward-compatible with
Ansible 2.20.

Shell 🐚

Description

This Ansible role ensures that .profile is sourced in both Bash and Zsh environments. It enables consistent environment variable loading across different login shells by linking shell-specific profile files (.bash_profile, .zprofile) to a centralized .profile.

Overview

By standardizing .profile as the central source for environment configuration, this role ensures consistent shell behavior. It does not manage the contents of .profile itself — only guarantees that it is sourced by supported shells.

Purpose

The purpose of this role is to unify shell environment setup across Bash and Zsh. It minimizes duplication and confusion by encouraging the use of .profile for shared configuration such as environment variables and agent settings.

Features

  • Centralized Configuration: Promotes .profile as the single source for shared shell settings.
  • Cross-Shell Compatibility: Ensures both Bash and Zsh source .profile properly.
  • Non-Invasive: Does not alter the content of .profile.
