I am getting these errors:
2022-04-29 16:38:25,710 [salt.utils.schedule:1043][ERROR ][11618] Missing python-dateutil. Ignoring job JOB1.
2022-04-29 16:38:26,720 [salt.utils.schedule:1043][ERROR ][11618] Missing python-dateutil. Ignoring job JOB2.
2022-04-29 16:38:26,721 [salt.utils.schedule:1043][ERROR ][11618] Missing python-dateutil. Ignoring job JOB1.
Not sure why this is happening. We have more than 400 minions and this is the only one that has that issue.
That server also has Nagios installed and it uses python2.. Maybe there is some kind of conflict? But I cannot find it...
Any ideas are greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Research direction
Reproduce the failure on Salt 3004.1 with Python 3.6.8 on CentOS 7, using the reported python-dateutil 2.8.2 environment. Start at the salt.utils.schedule error and compare the minion's dependency lookup with the interpreter that has dateutil installed; done means scheduled jobs are no longer ignored or the conflict is clearly diagnosed.
