Nearly everything seems to suggest that my fedup upgrade from F18 only partially F19 succeeded.

$ cat /etc/fedora-release
Fedora release 19 (Schrödinger’s Cat)

$ head /var/log/boot.log
[  OK  ] Started Show Plymouth Boot Screen.
[  OK  ] Reached target Basic System.

Welcome to Fedora 19 (Schrödinger’s Cat)!

But, the blue progress bar during bootup shows "Fedora 18."

Kernel appears to be F18, though:

$ uname -a
Linux harrier.xxx.com 3.9.11-200.fc18.i686.PAE #1 SMP Mon Jul 22 21:19:06 UTC 2013 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

By way of additional info, after running fedup with no errors, I rebooted, picking the "Fedora Upgrade" option. Then went to dinner. When I returned, the system was *powered completely down*. Booting it revealed the F18 message on the progress bar.

yum update shows a string of "some-package.fc19 is a duplicate of same- package.fc18

I don't see anything untoward in /var/log/fedup.log. Seems whatever has happened occurred after the reboot into the upgrade.

If a kernel update wasn't done as part of the upgrade, the boot message will still report F18, until the first F19 kernel update gets installed.

Running package-cleanup --cleandupes should remove the F18 package if an F19 package is already installed. Do that, then as long as the fedora-release package was updated to F19, you should be able to run 'yum update', and complete the upgrade.
