Howto yum update F10-F11?

2009-06-11 Thread Neal Becker
I failed.  I installed fedora-release-11-xxx and rpmfusion-{free,nonfree}-
release-11-xx rpms.  This completely broke yum, because the format of 
fedora.repo is not understood with F10 yum.

Try updating to F11 yum?  No good either, needs python-2.6.

So how is it done?

I'd recommend doing it using preupgrade.

Trying that now.

One machine is a laptop with a broken display.  I'm using an external 
display with it.  I don't know whether anaconda will come up on the external 
display when I reboot.  Guess I'll find out.

F10 updates-testing includes a new yum that understands the XML
mirrorlist files.

F11 updates-testing includes new ntp* packages that are considered
newer than F10 with updates.

Just tried it. Preupgrade died:
