Correction: using pulp_installer 3.5.0, I am still getting the same error
pulpcore/plugin compatibility error message I was getting with 3.4.1. (I
got past the secret_key error by specifying it in plain text in my playbook
instead of using vault (for now).) I am at a bit of a standstill, and am
going to shift gears and wait for some guidance or suggestions for how to
move forward with using pulp. Thanks again.
