Re: Preupgrade vs other upgrade methods, caveats?

Thanks everyone for the replies. So, for going 17->18, I should still be using Preupgrade, and after that this new Fedup application?

Best,

Preupgrade isn't supported any more, AFAIK.

That's only true for Fedora 18 and later releases.  For the current release, PreUpgrade is still the recommended upgrade path:

For Fedora 18, yum is currently the only upgrade option.

Fedora should be getting a new upgrade tool called "fedup":
