Dear friends,
I recently upgraded from F17 to F18. I chose not to use fedup but
rather I used fedora-upgrade, which is basically a wraparound around
yum upgrade (from the documentation). Everything went through
reasonably smoothly except for the following messages:
Font messages such as:
Updating : gnu-free-mono-fonts-20120503-3.fc18.noarch
1322/3028 Fontconfig warning:
"/etc/fonts/conf.d/65-0-khmeros-base.conf", line 29: Having multiple
values in <test> isn't supported and may not work as expected
Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/65-0-khmeros-base.conf", line
41: Having multiple values in <test> isn't supported and may not work
as expected Fontconfig warning:
"/etc/fonts/conf.d/65-0-khmeros-base.conf", line 53: Having multiple
values in <test> isn't supported and may not work as expected
Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/65-0-nhn-nanum-gothic.conf",
line 8: Having multiple values in <test> isn't supported and may not
work as expected
and the only selinux-policy-targeted message:
Updating : selinux-policy-targeted-3.11.1-67.fc18.noarch
1454/3028 libsepol.print_missing_requirements: matahari's global
requirements were not met: bool init_systemd (No such file or
directory). libsemanage.semanage_link_sandbox: Link packages failed (No
such file or directory). /usr/sbin/semodule: Failed!

Other than that, everything went through fine.
Upon reboot, I did not see the F18 grub splash screen, but the F17 one.
I did not get the SLiM display manager but text. startx gets me to the
desktop (LXDE).
Other errors:
1. pcmanfm does not automount disks, indeed, I get the following errors
when I start it up:

2. batti gives me no response and the following error:
ERROR:dbus.proxies:Introspect error on :1.80:/org/freedesktop/UPower:
dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply:
Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus) Neither UPower
nor DeviceKit.Power could be initialized! This can have multiple
reasons. Here is the error for UPower:
org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name :1.80 was not
provided by any .service files
And this is the error for DeviceKit.Power:
org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name
org.freedesktop.DeviceKit.Power was not provided by any .service files
3. sudo yum *whatever* always has the following:
Unable to send message to PackageKit
I am however able to install and update (and erase packages), most
functions, but does take forever to get started now.
Any suggestions, fixes?
Many thanks and best wishes,
Ranjan
