Logging template issue (KeyError: 'statefile')

[max-arnold]

I understand that you explicitly set 'pillar_roots': {},, so this issue is not about 'salt.pillar object' has no attribute 'timezone' (and the example state should use proper defaults).

The relevant traceback ends with KeyError: 'statefile', and it looks like the logging template gets used somewhere else without the necessary key being supplied:

{{ pillar['timezone'] }}:
  timezone.system:
    - utc: True
  file.managed:
    - name: /etc/timezone
    - template: jinja
    - user: root
    - group: root
    - mode: 644
    - contents: {{ pillar['timezone'] }}

$ salint salt/timezone
