This week, packages from repo.saltproject.io will be migrated to packages.broadcom.com. This means a variety of disruptive changes are being implemented around installing, upgrading, and pinning/locking Salt.

In order to integrate with Broadcom infrastructure and policies, we are migrating off of AWS public cloud infrastructure and consolidating services used by Salt Project by end of October 2024.

This also means that all self-hosted CI/CD runners, connected to our GitHub/GitLab repositories, will become non-functional when our public cloud backend is decommissioned.

As part of this migration, Salt Project is dropping all packages older than Salt v3006. This means that Salt 3005, 3004, etc. and older will no longer be available for installation.

NOTE: Since we use the same .deb packages across all Debian-based distros, we do not included codenames as part of the apt source list configuration.
