It should be fine. If preupgrade didn't pop up an error dialog about these problems, then they're non-fatal, and can be ignored. anaconda deliberately ignores dependency problems of this type, so preupgrade tries to do the same - which is why it ignored them instead of stopping the upgrade process or displaying an error message. > 2) If I upgrade using the CD/DVD instead, will I just hit the same issues? These same dependency issues will still be there, but no, they shouldn't prevent you from upgrading. They might not even be logged. > 3) ob-relevance-to--devel: I though there were automated regular scripts > running now to detect this kind of dependency issue? I guess I'm > mistaken... No, we check for some dependency problems with (e.g.) F10 updates and F10 updates-testing, but we don't yet compare F9 and F10. -w
