I thought the safer way was to disable all the community repositories before using something like yum upgrade or preupgrade. That way any hidden packaging bug in community packages don't come in the way of the distro upgrade. After the upgrade is finished, all one has to do is enable the repos again and do a simple yum update, followed by a distro-sync with all repos enabled. Could you clarify why you think upgrading with them enabled is better? Thanks, -- Suvayu Open source is the future.
