Which way is there to upgrade from one release > to the next when neither distro-sync, nor fedup can do this? i did dist-upgrade swith yum since Fedora 3 several hundret times even on a *lot* of production servers and "package-cleanup" is not that hard to hanlde no idea what is your problem to type "package-cleanup --leaves --all" and remove unused packages as well as "pckage-cleanup --orphans" shows you which can probably removed and if you not blindly say "yes" if there are deps you do not want to remove this is all really easy to handle twice a year
