Better, but still not so smooth handling a failure.

Re-running the update from the menu led me back to the error notification. It turns out to be a disk space issue: 70 more Mb needed on /.

A root fs needing >300Mb of disk space still makes no sense to me.

That needs reported to bugzilla, if you can do that please do, if you don't post back here with a bug # I'll do that later; packagekit needs to handle that issue.

The root fs needs to be big enough to hold all the downloaded updates and transaction rollback data though, so at 300Mb for F9 is probably way too small for any install.

I think I'm going to drop x86_64 and re-install as i386. The duplication of libraries and other nuisances aren't worth the (as I understand) minimal gains for a desktop.

They don't have to be duplicated any longer, only the part for flash libraries needs to be duplicate now, unless you run other 32bit binaries. You should only have x64 libraries if you installed as beta or later.
