Salt 2015.8.7 Release Notes
Version 2015.8.7 is a bugfix release for 2015.8.0.
Note
Salt 2015.8.4, 2015.8.5, and 2015.8.7 were all released within a short
period due to regressions found soon after the releases of 2015.8.4 and
2015.8.5. See here for the 2015.8.4 release
notes, and here for the 2015.8.5 release notes.
Change to Epoch Support for YUM/DNF
For pkg.installed
states, on Linux
distributions which use yum/dnf, packages which have a non-zero epoch in the
version number now require this epoch to be included when specifying an exact
version for a package. For example:
vim-enhanced:
pkg.installed:
- version: 2:7.4.160-1.el7
The pkg.latest_version
and
pkg.list_repo_pkgs
functions
can be used to get the correct version string to use, as they will now contain
the epoch when it is non-zero.
