    The salt ebuild has been refactored to remove the tests and modules that require dev-python/boto, and the mask has been removed.

    Salt has a lot of users, and it would be doing them a disservice to
    remove it from the tree.

    Hi Patrick,

    The salt ebuild has been refactored to remove the tests and modules that require dev-python/boto, and the mask has been removed.

    Salt has a lot of users, and it would be doing them a disservice to
    remove it from the tree.

    Salt is not trivial to distribute, because upstream wants us to run
    curl -o bootstrap-salt.sh -L https://bootstrap.saltproject.io

    Thank you for saving the salt ebuild.
    It really has a lot of users.
