Will and Seth anything you would like to add to testers?

BTW. Great work guys :)

You can get preupgrade here...

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=6045

or do..

koji download-build --arch=noarch preupgrade-0.9-2.fc8 ( fc9 for fc9 )
rpm -ihv preupgrade-0.9-2.fc8.noarch.rpm

If you have koji installed..

There's no use filing bugs just yet since this has not made it to the components list
in bugzilla. ( correct me if I'm wrong I did not find it.. )

Claiming the first bug found :)

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/preupgrade/preupgrade-gtk.py", line 196, in on_assistant_apply
  self._do_main()
File "/usr/share/preupgrade/preupgrade-gtk.py", line 204, in _do_main
  self.main_preupgrade()
File "/usr/share/preupgrade/preupgrade-gtk.py", line 358, in main_preupgrade (mdev,mpath) = preupgrade.bootpath_to_anacondapath(self.pu.bootpath+"/"+stage2file) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/preupgrade/__init__.py", line 119, in bootpath_to_anacondapath
  if dev.endswith(bootdev):
TypeError: expected a character buffer object

Claiming the second :)

Rerun after the above failure..

And it lacks the ability to check ( Do I have enough space in
/boot before proceeding, if not check if I failed and clean up after my failure
and retry )

This also brings up interesting question how are you gonna
handle if people don't have enough space on /boot.

Is  /boot the best place for this ( /tmp maybe better )

And the third :)

Man page(s) missing ...

And the fourth :) .. Or the first RFE :) ..

Missing the option to run it from the cli.
Something like preupgrade -r or --repo ( repo ) -s or --silent or -v or --verbose, -b --reboot ( reboot when done ) etc..

Best regards
                   Johann B.
