It's not one of our supported upgrade mechanisms, and there appears to be no chance of that changing. Please don't warm over that argument again. The messaging and optics of saying 'yum is a supported upgrade mechanism, but just for F18 beta! We'll have a new mechanism for F18 final! Which won't have been tested much at all! And yum will be evil again! So use it now! But don't use it again ever!' really suck. Which is why no-one wants to do it. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
