These release notes are for an old release of Salt. This release might contain known security and other issues that are fixed in the latest release.
Salt 2015.8.10 Release Notes¶
Version 2015.8.10 is a bugfix release for 2015.8.0.
This release includes fixes for two issues discovered in 2015.8.9:
Pip state broken in 2015.8.9 with pip <6.0 (issue #33376)
Fix traceback in logging for config validation (PR #33386)
Final Release of Debian 7 Packages¶
Regular security support for Debian 7 ended on April 25th 2016. As a result, 2016.3.1 and 2015.8.10 will be the last Salt releases for which Debian 7 packages are created.
Important Post-Upgrade Instructions for Linux Mint¶
As a result of some upstream changes, the os grain on Mint Linux is now
being detected as LinuxMint (issue #33295). Run the following command
after you upgrade to 2015.8.10 to reset the os grain to Mint and
the os_family grain to Debian:
salt -G 'os:LinuxMint' grains.setvals "{'os': 'Mint', 'os_family': 'Debian'}"
