salt-minion file doesn't have newline if run from make install #1

Let me preface this by saying:

  • I've literally never used salt before, and
  • I've literally never used debian before.

So if this sounds stupid or obvious, please disregard :)

So I thought I'd give your instructions a crack, ran make install which worked, then make apply threw a syntax error while reading the /etc/salt/minion file.

I looked at it, looked at your manual instructions, and it seems that there's no newline between the two separate statements there.

The install.sh seems to be attempting to put a newline by nature of your string going over two lines in the file... alas the result is not as expected.

Simple work-around:

  1. make install
  2. sudo vim /etc/salt/minion and insert the new line
  3. make apply

Seems to be running now.

Anyhoo, thought I'd let you know!
