Debian Jessie is not a supported distribution at this time. This is only one of several problems that you'll encounter when you're not using Ubuntu, which is why the playbook outputs the warning that it does when it's run against something else.

Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial) will soon become the base distribution, and I have already started working on that upgrade. I don't have the bandwidth to support more than one foundation at a time, and Ubuntu is far more ubiquitous across hosting providers. I wrote a little bit more detail about my thought process in this area around a month ago.

It's likely that some of the work related to 16.04 will also benefit Debian, but if Streisand happens to start working on Jessie it will still likely be in an unofficial and unsupported form.

Thanks for the feedback!
