I have a series of formulas that worked fine on Ubuntu, but I'm finding that they don't work correctly on my minion running CentOS release 6.6 (Final). The minion is running salt version: salt-minion 2014.7.0 (Helium)
For example, the git-core package is not working:
git-core:
pkg.installed
When I run highstate, I get this error:
[user] out: ----------
[user] out: ID: git-core
[user] out: Function: pkg.installed
[user] out: Result: False
[user] out: Comment: Package 'git-core' not found (possible matches: git, wt-git)
[user] out: Changes:
[user] out: ----------
When I attempt to manually install the requirements on the server, they appear to be already installed:
root@host [225 01:41:35 /home/project]# yum install git-core
Loaded plugins: changelog, downloadonly, fastestmirror, security
Setting up Install Process
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
* epel: mirror.steadfast.net
Package wt-git-1.7.1-1.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do
Why does git-core appear to be 'not found' by SaltStack, when it's installed?
BTW, there is a whole set of errors across packages, not just git, including:
[user] out: ----------
[user] out: ID: ssh
[user] out: Function: service.running
[user] out: Result: False
[user] out: Comment: The named service ssh is not available

I'm sure you've already found this, but for the sake of the next person, it's sshd on my CentOS boxes. Try something like:
{% if grains['os_family']=="RedHat" %}
sshd:
service.running
{% elif grains['os_family']=="Debian" %}
ssh:
service.running
{% endif %}
