Read Before Upgrading Debian 7 (Wheezy) from 2015.8.7 to 2016.11.2
Before you upgrade, you must run the following commands to remove previous packages:
sudo apt-get remove python-pycrypto
sudo apt-get remove python-apache-libcloud
Note that python-pycrypto
will likely remove python-apache-libcloud
, so the second command might not be necessary. These have been replaced by python-crypto
and python-libcloud
with ~bpo70+1 moniker.

The installer can be run silently by providing the /S
option at the command line. The options /master
and /minion-name
allow for configuring the master hostname and minion name, respectively. Here’s an example of running a silent installation from the command line:
Salt-Minion-2016.11.2-AMD64-Setup.exe /S /master=yoursaltmaster /minion-name=yourminionname
Post-installation configuration

OS X Gatekeeper settings might prevent installation of the Salt package. If a warning appears during installation, open System Preferences > Security & Privacy > click Open Anyway
After the installation completes, run the following to configure the Salt minion ID, the Salt master location, and to start the required services.
sudo salt-config -i yourminionname -m yoursaltmaster
On OS X, the Salt minion configuration file is in the standard /etc/salt/minion
location. To stop the Salt minion, run the following:
sudo launchctl stop com.saltstack.salt.minion
To start the Salt minion, run the following:
sudo launchctl start com.saltstack.salt.minion
