Bug Description

https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-core/issues/2585

This is fixed in yakkety but broken in xenial. The single-line fix should be SRU'd.

Impact: when the file module fails, ansible fails trying to report the erorr message.
Test case:
    ansible 127.0.0.1 -m file -a "path=/mp/xx state=directory mode=0755"
This should show permission denied, but instead fails saying "There was an issue creating /mp as requested: 'module' object has no attribute 'EEXISTS'"

Hello Serge, or anyone else affected,

Accepted ansible into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ansible/2.0.0.2-2ubuntu1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!
