I see no reason to make this an officially supported method to upgrade
Fedora. The QA team is already swamped with work just getting the new
install tests done, and now fedup tests. Having a third way of getting
a Fedora release onto a machine is going to expand the testing matrix
even more. This isn't replacing something, it's just creating more
work.
Yum upgrade has always been possible but not supported. Seems it can
stay that way.
a)
QA was never asked when preupgrade got approved as an official upgrade
method in the first place...
b)
We QA have alot of QA community members testing this so this does NOT
require any additional effort or cause additional LOAD on the QA community.
c)
We ( QA ) already have discussed this and it takes minor criteria
changed for us to implement this ( either or ).
yum upgrade is equally broken from my pov as preupgrade or fedup thus to
me we can just as well "support" two failed upgrade mechanism or non et
all.
It does not take a rocket scientist to figure out we cant probably
"support" upgrading until we default to brtrfs and users can rollback
and boot into their old environment just incase heck our own so called
default desktop does not handle upgrades very well.
So I say let's support both or non et all..
