Support Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

@nickjj thanks for your hard work on this role; I think you are aware that it isn’t supporting 20.04 LTS yet due to docker not publishing public focal packages yet [1]. My question is whether you are thinking about supporting it (for example by using bionic instead as outlined in [2]), or whether you want to wait for Docker to publish public packages? Right now it fails at this step:

Thanks!

Thanks @StefanScherer.

I just pushed v2.0.0 to the Ansible Galaxy which has a few goodies, including support for Ubuntu 20.04.

Hi,

I’d like to wait until it’s officially supported by Docker.

But I totally understand wanting to use 20.04 right away.

I’m going to ask Docker to see when they plan to support it. Hopefully it’s in the near future.

For now, let’s leave this issue open until it’s officially supported.
