The problem is preupgrade normally pulls from release + updates, pulling from the DVD even now will not work because F10 + updates has newer file versions than are on the DVD. -----Original Message----- From: fedora-devel-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-devel-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Alexander Boström Sent: Wednesday, June 24, 2009 12:16 PM To: Development discussions related to Fedora Subject: Re: Why do we need FC version attached to the package name?

Preupgrade could install a hook that recognises distro DVDs (or even CDs) when inserted in a running system, prompting the user "Would you like to upgrade to <release name>?", which would just run Preupgrade as usual, copying packages off the disc if possible. /abo -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
