So I saw a rpm update and a number of other builds today when
dealing
with various packaging bits. Checking the update [1] and reading the
attached bug [2] I was a little shocked to find that "yum upgrade"
between releases would be explicitly broken due to this feature.
Yes, I know that it's not officially recommended as a means of
upgrading and never been QAed it has been generally supported and
expected to work [4] for as long as I can remember.
if this is really true F17 will be even a bader release as F15
i made several HUNDRET of dist-upgrades with yum since FC3 and
upgrade via DVD/Preupgrade is simply UNACEPPTABLE
