Sorry, I have the ones currently in bullseye. I’m afraid I am not at said machine at the moment and won’t be for the weekend. I’ll post more
next week.

That was just there to indicate that this works perfectly fine on sid. I have another machine (which I’m using at the moment), which runs sid
without any of the problems I’ve described here.

What worried me was that you might, on the desktop machine, have
carried over configuration files in /home from the sid version
to bullseye. Your mentioning since, that there are some files
(I know not what) in ~/.local/bin/ make that a reasonable question
to ask.

I started writing a reply to this about how I checked and re-checked for any such files. I was about to check the output of `ansible-playbook --version`, both in `$HOME/.local/bin` and in `/usr/bin`. Then it hit me, that ansible is using more files than I anticipated. Removing these fixed my issue!

Many many thousand thanks to you and everyone else who helped me with this!

Kind regards,
Nathanael
