Lemmy ansible error (sh.itjust.works)

When I run the command: ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts lemmy.yml I encounter an error. My user on the server has passwordless root access, and it is a completely fresh install. I have updated and rebooted the system, as well as tried updating without rebooting and without updating, but I continue to receive the same error message. I am using the latest build from two weeks ago.

I am using Ubuntu server 22.04.

You may be running apt upgrade in another terminal, or it didn't complete properly in the past. Anyway it cannot install packages so you need to fix that.
