rpmlib(X-CheckUnifiedSystemdir) is needed by filesystem-3-2.fc17.x86_64
I know I got what I deserved by attempting to fix by hand the move from / to /usr, just did need to boot from the fedora16 dvd, mount lvm root and finish my fix; brain fart, and cyclic dep on moving /lib64 to /usr/lib64 and then a symlink, leaving it with all binaries failing due to missing /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2. After that, while it is finishing updating to rawhide right now, I did go search for documentation, but still find that https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading_Fedora_using_yum#Fedora_16_-.3E_Fedora_17 is not much clear about it. Maybe should strongly advise installing busybox and/or have a step by step procedure. Or even better, to somehow have it done automatically, by some statically linked program. This should have been already discussed to death, but I found worth to post a note about it as I am somewhat of a newcomer to fedora...

Yes, it was me trying to be too smart :-) Or even better, to somehow have it done automatically, by some statically linked program. This is already done if you use any supported upgrade method - preupgrade or netinst / DVD upgrade. What I did was to install fedora-release-rawhide, disable all repositories in /etc/yum.repos.d and enable rawhide ones, and then attempt a few times yum distro-sync until I removed all unresolvable updates, most due to several review requests and/or requests for enhancement that I will rebuild... Not a criticism, just reporting my hacker instinct of only reading documentation when everything else fails :-) -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net Paulo -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Not a criticism, just reporting my hacker instinct of only reading documentation when everything else fails :-) Yeah, the reason we have the yum upgrade instructions page is that it's simply not always possible to ensure a straightforward 'switch repos and yum upgrade' (or, better, 'yum --releasever=XX distro-sync') will completely work. That's also why yum isn't an officially supported upgrade method. /usr move is a good example, really. It would be impossible, really, to handle it through RPM scripts/triggers alone. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
