I'm new on saltstack and I'm learning by reading formulas.

init.sls Line 15 seams a duplicate of line 11 to me.

I'm in error?

Vim-nox on ubuntu 15.10 throws an error in file vim-formula/vim/files/salt/syntax/sls.vim, lines 26-27-28.

It seems that \ and newlines aren't accepted.

Hi! When running the vim state, this error happens:

In Debian, usual config location is in /etc/vim/vimrc and not /etc/vimrc . Any config options set in the latter seems to be ignored.

Thank you, ciao

Formulas iterating over dictionaries should use the items() method instead of iteritems() because the latter method has been removed from Python 3. While the items() method in Python 2 uses more memory than iteritems(), these dictionaries are typically small (e.g., sets of settings from Pillar).

With the latest pull request vim formula will manage vimrc

can this be optional: something like managed: True or False in map.jijnja

After a sudo salt '*' state.apply vim.salt tested on Ubuntu 16.04, running vim throws:

vim.editor doesn't work on debian as /usr/bin/vim is already an alias to /etc/alternatives/vim
which goes by default to /usr/bin/vim.basic

Thanks for fixing that.

I had to uncomment

_/usr/share/vim/vimfiles/vimrc:_

if has("autocmd")
  filetype plugin indent on
endif

in order to get vim.salt to work properly on Ubuntu 13.04. I'm not sure if this is specifically an issue that needs a fix, but I thought I'd bring it up for discussion :)

I'm new at salt - so I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if the feature simply isn't complete.

When attempting to use vim.editor I get the following error:

Rendering SLS 'base:vim.editor' failed: Jinja variable 'map' is undefined
