What should I do with the rpmnew files?

Same thing you would do if it were RHEL, CentOS and Scientific.
_Probably_ delete them.

You have to figure out if there are any new entries and capture those
before you delete them...

Just thought maybe you would say, nothing new here, just move along.  :)

That's more or less what I did say, if you sort the files and do a diff there shouldn't be anytthing particularly different between them, other than maybe the password hashes (or lack thereof).

My build process is working.  I have done it 3 times.  I have not only
what it takes to go from 'scratch', but my saved tar files from F19 so
others can benefit.  Even xz image for the minimual that can just be
xzcat on to an 8Gb card and go.  Next will be the xz that will be
current for updates as of today.

If you are using an image, please make sure you do:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/scrub bs=8MB; rm -f /scrub

before you create the image to zero out the free space. That is one of the reasons I don't use images. The other is that block devices are always of slightly different sizes, so you have to make a minimal partition and the user has to resize it after the first boot.

A better way, IMO, is gdisk instructions (possibly a text file you can pipe into it sgdisk?) plus a tar ball as it generally results in a smaller file.

Of course these files will need homes.

Happy to put them on the download server.

The minimal xz is 446Mb.  I did
not use any xz options, just ran it.  Though I zeroed out the SDcard
before building so it would compress as well as possible with defaults.

Deleting the log files and zeroing out the free space after creating the image should also help.

Instructions and files most likely tomorrow.

Great, thanks. :)
