See?...it's stuff like the stories above that make me hesitant to go
from 18 to 19

Why? Something went wrong. Once. I spent several days, off and on, cleaning up cruft and duplicate packages from a CLI, got the GUI working and all was well. Tish happens. With every gain, there's a risk. For me, going from 17 to 18 had too many risks; jumping right to 19 looks much safer. YMMV and all that, but as long as you have /home on its own partition, and that's backed up, there's no reason to be afraid.
Well I've just finished backing up not only the /home...but /usr.../tmp../etc as well...(as I was able to do a "fresh" install from 17 to 18.....I didn't quite know what to "save"....so I took it ALL!).....And now for......"fedup-cli --network 19"...and I'll keep my fingers crossed....but what's the time frame?....like an hour?....2?...2+1/2?....I mean could I possibly make it from the community where I live to the Piza Hut "in town" for three large "Meat-zza's" and back before its done?...LOL!
