that is not the point

the point is that "yum update" IS ALWAYS WRONG for a dist-upgrade
the point is that ANY yum-commadn alone is NOT ENOUGH

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading_Fedora_using_yum#Fedora_17_-.3E_Fedora_18

* yum update yum
* yum clean all
* yum --releasever=18 --disableplugin=presto distro-sync
* Rebuild rpm database: su -c 'rpm --rebuilddb', or rpm -qa will not work due to an upgrade of rpm

have fun with yum and rpm commands if you miss the last step

you should lose sleep if someone is doing it

do you not understand that with this two lines you lead
people to damage their system because they are simply
bullshit and dangerous? posts like yours are the root
cause of other threads to solve troubles

postings like yours are the reason for "dist upgrade with
yum makes troubles most of the time" while people like me
following instructions, try to understand them and made
some hundret upgrades without troubles

so especially in case of SENSITIVE things like a dist-upgrade
be specific and 100% correct or do not say anything at all
