I actually did install minions in every jail (17!). For me the choice =
was easy: either perform a =E2=80=98pkg -j <jail-id> upgrade=E2=80=99 17 =
times, or =E2=80=9Csalt =E2=80=98*=E2=80=99 pkg.upgrade=E2=80=9D once =
(yeah, I=E2=80=99m lazy :) ). The latter command also updates the linux =
boxes and the raspberry pi=E2=80=99s.

And this is only one of the advantages. I have several directories =
getting updates from git, and performing a =E2=80=9Chighstate=E2=80=9D =
will automatically update those directories.

But of course you pay the price in used memory and CPU cycles.=20
