The fedup installation guide used to say that it was not recommended
if one is using KDE or Gnome, which I imagine would be 90% of users.
Does it still say this?


In general, upgrades are recommended to be run in a more minimal
environment but since fedup only installs packages in a special
environment
anyway, there is nothing stopping you from running it within GNOME or KDE

I am running it from a terminal.  no X.

Corporate firewall is preventing system from getting the necessary files.

All documentation states that it is supposed to work through the
firewall and use the yum.conf file to find the proxy.

I will look at the fedora-upgrade and try that.

I guess I will submit a bug report on fedup about this.

You do have the "proxy http://whatever"; or "proxy libproxy" set in your
/etc/yum.conf file, right?

When you say your corporate firewall is blocking things, is it really
blocking or limiting the amount of data you can download from the
outside world? When you run fedup with the "-v" or "-d" options, what are you seeing?
