The solution was set the vars ansible_python_interpreter: "/usr/bin/python3" I wil make the PR adding this vars.

I suppose that ansible check if setuptools exist for default python interpreter, and in this case (for me) python2 is default, and python2-setuptools was not installed. By the way, I think that this is an ansible bug, because the check (setuptool installed) must be with the “virtualenv_command” interpreter used
