Yeah. Actually there is a file called /etc/fedora-releasever (or something similar) that contains the value. Now I remember that when I migrated from Fedora core 1 to 2 y tried to do it in a apt-like way, changing the variable and doing a yum update. It failed catastrophically and I had to use CDs to reinstall. But I have seen that yum has been improved. -- Juan M.
