Why Did the Value for a Grain Change on Its Own?
------------------------------------------------
This is usually the result of an upstream change in an OS distribution that
replaces or removes something that Salt was using to detect the grain.
Fortunately, when this occurs, you can use Salt to fix it with a command
similar to the following:
.. code-block:: bash
salt -G 'grain:ChangedValue' grains.setvals "{'grain': 'OldValue'}"
(Replacing *grain*, *ChangedValue*, and *OldValue* with
the grain and values that you want to change / set.)
You should also `file an issue <https://github.com/saltstack/salt/issues>`_
describing the change so it can be fixed in Salt.

**after you upgrade to 2015.8.9** to reset the ``os`` grain to ``Mint`` and
