Great!

Now I've discovered a problem with my Live USB system: yum is now
unhappy.

    [liveuser@localhost ~]$ sudo yum update
    Loaded plugins: langpacks, refresh-packagekit
    fedora/19/x86_64/metalink                                |  25 kB     00:00     
    Could not parse metalink https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=fedora-19&arch=x86_64 error was 
    No repomd file
    Error: File /var/cache/yum/x86_64/19/fedora/metalink.xml does not exist

I wonder how that happened.  It isn't that the overlay is full:

    [liveuser@localhost ~]$ sudo msetup status
    live-osimg-min: 0 16777216 snapshot 4576/4576 32
    live-rw: 0 16777216 snapshot 4228920/8386560 16464

I did shut the live system down properly after the update.
