I haven't had the best of luck with anaconda/preupgrade, but yum + human works pretty well. I've got a machine here doing my SOHO tasks that was installed as Redhat 9 and has been yum upgraded. FC1->FC2 was the only tricky one. The YumUpgradeFAQ is indispensable and sometimes there are conflicts that need resolving (which, I assume, is why anaconda fails to depsolve). But all-in-all it takes far less time to upgrade than re-install for non-trivial configurations. We suggest filing bugs against packages that fail to upgrade, but I believe I've seen those closed with "we don't support upgrades." "...yet," I say - it's inevitable. I really wish there were a way to segregate /etc into system configs and application configs so that it was easier to do re-installs. -Bill -- Bill McGonigle, Owner Work: 603.448.4440 BFC Computing, LLC Home: 603.448.1668 http://www.bfccomputing.com/ Cell: 603.252.2606 Twitter, etc.: bill_mcgonigle Page: 603.442.1833 Email, IM, VOIP: bill@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Blog: http://blog.bfccomputing.com/ VCard: http://bfccomputing.com/vcard/bill.vcf -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
