 +
 +===== Installation =====
 +
 +Use the latest versions from salt repo, because various things like finger-key-exchange have been modified in 2016 and you get authentication errors with older versions
 +
 +**debian:**
 +  wget -4 -O  - https://repo.saltstack.com/apt/debian/8/amd64/latest/SALTSTACK-GPG-KEY.pub |  apt-key add -
 +
 +**add to /etc/apt/sources.list:**
 +
 +**debian 8 - jessie:**
 +  deb http://repo.saltstack.com/apt/debian/8/amd64/latest jessie main
 +
 +**debian 9 - stretch:**
 +  deb http://repo.saltstack.com/apt/debian/9/amd64/latest stretch main
 +
 +
 +**install:**
 +  apt-get install salt-minion
 +
 +if you get python-systemd not installable, maybe you have pinned all *systemd* packages in /etc/apt/preferences.d/systemd to avoid systemd installation?
 +
