Debian & Ubuntu
===============
Ubuntu
------
We are working to get Salt into apt. In the meantime we have a PPA available
for Lucid::
aptitude -y install python-software-properties
add-apt-repository ppa:saltstack/salt
aptitude update
aptitude install salt-master # on the master
aptitude install salt-minion # on the minion
aptitude install salt-syndic # instead of a slaved master
Debian
------
`A deb package is currently in testing`__ for inclusion in apt. Until that is
accepted you can install Salt by downloading the latest ``.deb`` in the
`downloads section on GitHub`__ and installing that manually using ``dpkg -i``.

.. admonition:: Installing ZeroMQ on Squeeze (Debian 6)
There is a `python-zmq`__ package available in Debian \"wheezy (testing)\".
If you don't have that repo enabled the best way to install Salt and pyzmq
is by using ``pip`` (or ``easy_install``)::
pip install pyzmq salt
