Ansible role is failing during update from Nexus 3.71.1-06 to 3.73.0-12

During the update from Nexus 3.71.1 to 3.73.0 the role (v2.5.2) fails with the following error message:

TASK [ansible-thoteam.nexus3-oss : Calling Groovy script setup_ldap] **************

This is the next error I stumbled in when I patched the ansible role locally (by commenting out the parts that are responsible for #431). It seems that over time more and more groovy scripts needs to be replaced by API calls.
