• Amazon Linux AMI 2010.xx is now explicitly not supported.
• Install the salt-api scripts if available when the salt-master is also installed.
• Added support for a configurable sleep time when starting, restarting and checking for enabled services.
• Drop the tsflags requirement for RHEL and RHEL based distributions.
• When sorting release files, oracle-release has higher priority than redhat-release.
• Distro Support Fixed:
  • Debian >= 7 uses system's python-requests package, not PIP
  • Install 'python-zypp' in SuSE and openSUSE(required by Salt's zypper module)
  • Only install EPEL on requiring distributions if not already installed
  • CentOS 7 now uses systemd and the script now properly handles it
  • systemd in openSUSE 12.2 complains if service does not contain .service
  • Properly detect openSUSE using lsb_release
  • SLES 11 SP3 ships with both python-M2Crypto-0.22.* and python-m2crypto-0.21 and we will be asked which we want to install, even with --non-interactive. Let's try to install the higher version first and then the lower one in case of failure.
  • Allow some extra time on RHEL for the optionals repo check in case the repository subscription is being managed externally.
