it seems i can work around this by setting python path in the environment to point to the docker virtualenv

inventory__environment:
  PYTHONPATH: "{{ lookup('env','PYTHONPATH') }}:/usr/local/lib/docker/virtualenv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/"

this is very curious.. as hosts provisioned before today don't seem to need this.. but today's host does..

i'm having an issue with my debops project..
i went to provision a new host today and i'm getting this error when any of my roles call docker_image tasks..

fatal: [venue419.mgmt.union.up]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Failed to import docker or docker-py - No module named requests.exceptions. Try `pip install docker` or `pip install docker-py` (Python 2.6)"}

none of my existing hosts experience this error.. just the newest one..

any suggestions around how to resolve this?
