# If any of these tasks fail, the entire build fails immediately.
# Also must specify the location of the ansible.cfg file as it is
# not in the role's top directory for cleanliness. Last, must
# ensure pdflatex will write output files where needed, basically
# disabling the paranoid behavior about output files.
