Also, in 0.9x I found that I could no longer use spaces in a log file path.
Would love to be wrong about that being an issue though, since I now have to
create symlinks for the paths to work around that.

Normally it goes quite smoothly. The one thing that caught me out and
caused problems was in the older 0.8 branch the whitelisted IP?s could be
on separate lines.
In 0.9 branch they all have to be on one line separated by spaces other
than that everything else seemed to work OK after I traced that error.
Always remember to quick fix and find any errors after upgrade if Fail2ban
is not starting
Run
*sudo fail2ban-client -vvv -x stop*
and then
*sudo fail2ban-client -vvv -x start*
and then it will give you verbose output of exactly where it is failing to
start.
Cheers
Mitch
