[Debian]: error adding repos from saltstack

[Veniamin Gvozdikov]

Hello,

I'm having error in salt-minion when I'm using a my custom debian repo:

[ERROR ] Unable to import "sourceslist" from "aptsources" module: No module named softwareproperties.ppa

[ERROR ] Unable to import "sourceslist" from "aptsources" module: No module named softwareproperties.ppa

I have installed packages from deb http://debian.saltstack.com/debian squeeze-saltstack main :

ii salt-common 0.15.1-1~bpo60+1 shared libraries that salt requires for all pack

ii salt-minion 0.15.1-1~bpo60+1 client package for salt, the distributed remote

Can you provide the states that you're using to configure your custom debian repo?  We will need more details in order to help you debug your problem.

Thanks!

Hi,

A guess might be that the squeeze version of python-apt doesn't
include support for softwareproperties.ppa.

There are possibly ways around this if this is the case.

Cheers,

Joe

What *is* this softwareproperties.ppa? I get lots of warnings too, on
Ubuntu, and I saw a bug

https://github.com/saltstack/salt/issues/4629

mentioning it, but a quick google didn't turn up anything.

OK, I see the source of the problem.  We try to import softwareproperties.ppa from the sourceslist module here:  https://github.com/saltstack/salt/blob/develop/salt/modules/apt.py#L26-L30

If it fails and the OS is Ubuntu, then we log a warning:  https://github.com/saltstack/salt/blob/develop/salt/modules/apt.py#L50-L52

Is the state actually failing in addition?  Looking back I don't think you ever stated whether your state is actually failing.

Finally, are you running Debian or Ubuntu?  I assumed Debian because you installed from the Debian repos, but at the same time that conditional shouldn't hit unless you're on Ubuntu, so I'm a little confused.
