Finally got back to this, the non educated fix was to remove the last two
lines of pkg-plist:

original was:
minion:#cat bu
@sample %%ETCDIR%%/master.sample
@sample %%ETCDIR%%/minion.sample
%%PYTHON_SITELIBDIR%%/salt/_syspaths.py
##%%PYTHON_SITELIBDIR%%/salt/_syspaths.pyc
##%%PYTHON_SITELIBDIR%%/salt/_syspaths.pyo
minion:#

minion:#cat pkg-plist
@sample %%ETCDIR%%/master.sample
@sample %%ETCDIR%%/minion.sample
%%PYTHON_SITELIBDIR%%/salt/_syspaths.py
minion:#


Haven't been able to figure out why exactly its failing, but master and
minion aren't complaining of anything.  Will need to file a pr if I can
find a real solution.
