In short, Ansible reports "n/a" for ansible_distribution_release on our new bullseye nodes. This screws up our mirror setup. This has turned into quite an adventure.
Currently, Debian is frozen to create the "bullseye" release. This means that "bullseye" is really an alias for "testing", that will turn into the release after the freeze period. [...]
The irony is that `lsb_release -c` has been returning "bullseye" on my sid machines for weeks, since base-files 11.1 was uploaded to unstable (2021-04-10).
