saltstack/salt — Issue #387: Salt is uninstallable into clean environment using stated procedure

Salt 0.94 won't install (via pip or easy_install) because yaml is used via the setup.py file.

setup.py imports salt.__version__
=>salt/__init__.py imports salt.config
==>salt/config.py imports yaml #ImportError

Normally this would be installed as a dependency, but if you are installing clean, this version check hits before any dependency management is done, making salt uninstallable using the stated procedure.
