Description
When running ansible version 8, the apply script shows a warning: [WARNING]: Invalid characters were found in group names but not replaced, use -vvvv to see details
This is because the group name here can't contain -.
To confirm, I also edited the apply script to add the -vvvv flag and this is the output:
Not replacing invalid character(s) "{'-'}" in group name (dev-desktop)
[WARNING]: Invalid characters were found in group names but not replaced, use -vvvv to see details
Not replacing invalid character(s) "{'-'}" in group name (dev-desktop)
