Even though you fixed this yourself, F19 has already been EOLed and will

That's why it's important for people to stay current with the supported
versions, or switch to a distro with long-term support.

My desktop is still using F19, because the power supply is flaky and I'm not willing to risk an upgrade until my hardware geek can replace it. (RSN) The other day I needed to run yumex, to check something in the configuration and was astonished to find an update: adobe had packaged the latest flash update for F19. Will wonders ever cease?

On a side note, I've never had fedup work properly on this box, although it does on my laptop. (Preupgrade worked just fine for me.) This time, I'm going to try update-fedora and see how it works.
