As far as I am aware - nothing.

I prepared the other packages that were required a little while ago. I
will recheck them and upload this week - probably to
mentors.debian.org.

The complete list required is:

cython
libzmq3
python-zmq > 13

cython and libzmq3 can be done at the same time, python-zmq depends on
the others so must be done afterwards. Once all of these are in then
we can do salt itself.

Given we are looking at 3 stages (cython and libzmq3, python-zmq then
salt) by 2 distributions is it worth giving the backports list
advanced warning of the plan?

Thanks,

Joe
