Which problem do you have with the transition from Fedora x to Fedora
x+1?
Massive breakage... Compatibility with the jpackage repo would be one
example. Keeping a mod_perl program working with apache/perl version
changes would be another. Database version changes. Basically any API
change anywhere is likely to break local programming as well as 3rd
party repo usability, and Fedora changes wildly between versions. But
more to the point, no version of Fedora is suitable for production use.
For example, long after a stable, reliable kernel was available in
RHEL5 and Centos, FC6 shipped an update kernel that crashed on a variety
of scsi controllers. The nature of the project is just such that
sufficient QA is never going to happen.
