Package: salt-api
Version: 2018.3.4+dfsg1-6+deb10u1
Debian ships 3 patches from Benjamin Drung to make salt use the
python3-tornado4 package:
0001-Import-tornado.gen-as-tornado_gen.patch
0002-Explicitly-import-attributes-from-tornado.patch
0003-Use-renamed-python3-tornado4.patch
The 3rd patch is incomplete, and as a result the rest_tornado netapi
module is totally broken. If one configures rest_tornado[1] and tries
to start salt-api, the result is:
Process salt.loaded.int.netapi.rest_tornado.start:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python3.7/multiprocessing/process.py", line 297, in _bootstrap
self.run()
File "/usr/lib/python3.7/multiprocessing/process.py", line 99, in run

File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/salt/netapi/rest_tornado/__init__.py",
line 127, in start
from tornado.httpserver import HTTPServer
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tornado'
If you make the unfortunate detour of installing python3-tornado, or
already have it installed for other reasons, salt-api will start, but
it won't work at all, connections to the configured port simply hang.
The fix is straightforward; here it is in the form of a direct patch
against the offending source file:
