# dev-python/boto is dead, with last release in 2018.  It has been
# replaced by dev-python/boto3.  It carries a ton of patches and still
# depends on dev-python/nose.
#
# app-admin/salt is its only remaining reverse dependency.  The ebuild
# is of very low quality.
#
# Removal on 2024-03-28.  Bug #888235.

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.

Best,
