Well, the other thing fedup does - and the other reason it's necessary compared to a simple online yum upgrade - is provide a mechanism for pretty much any package to hook in pretty much any action to be performed as part of the upgrade. To be sure of what's going to happen during a given fedup transaction, you should also check what scripts are going to get fired as part of the upgrade. In F18 I'm not sure there are any, but this is the kind of mechanism we would use, fr'instance, to switch the default bootloader as part of an upgrade in future, if we decided we wanted to do that again. The kind of stuff that can't be done in %pre/%post etc.
Is this documented somewhere? I would like to read more about this feature. -- Miroslav Suchy Red Hat Systems Management Engineering -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
