Sorry for the double-posting:
I've been to the fedora-upgrade (wiki) sites and got confused. Can
someone give me a shortened, simplistic version for stupid people
(ie: myself) of how to use the yum-upgrade command?
Sincerely,
Richard
It's the same as yum update but:
man yum
"upgrade
Is the same as the update command with the --obsoletes
flag set. See update for more details."
iirc it check for packages that have been replaced by
another package in the fedora repos
example oldsweetjam.rpm replaced by healthyoptionjam.rpm
