What I found out later yesterday is that fedup 0.8 changed the path where it downloads packages, so if you update to fedup 0.8 it doesn't see 0.7's cache, so it re-downloads everything. It's trivial to work around: 'mv /var/lib/fedora-upgrade /var/lib/system-upgrade', 'mv /var/tmp/fedora-update /var/tmp/system-upgrade' . -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
