[Semibug] Ansible vs FreeBSD

Trying to set up a new machine with Ansible. I think I'm
missing something:
   Doing anything in a virtual python environment like:
      https://serversforhackers.com/c/an-ansible2-tutorial
   fails utterly.

   By running it globally, I can get a little further but even
   a simple package install fails:

$ cat freebsdpkg.yml:
- hosts: jails
  tasks:
      - name: Add packages on FreeBSD
        pkgng:
            name: wget

TASK [Add packages on FreeBSD] ********************************************************************************************************************************************************
fatal: [192.186.3.145]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Could not update catalogue"}


Is Ansible simply not ready for prime time?
