hi,
I just upgraded my FC10 to FC11. Booted from dvd and chose 'upgrade'. After upgrade, I did yum update. And my open office 2.x got replaced by 3.x, all my address books, book marks, passwords etc were all in the correct places. Everything worked out of the box. Obviously this is a bug. How do I report it and get it rectified. (The chicken I had bought to sacrifice in order to get the OO upgrade done remains alive)
Very nice :-) Why did OO get upgraded after yum update? Why not with the system upgrade? Does F11 come with a lower default OO version?
apparently fedora doesn't update the apps on a system upgrade. You have to run a yum update to update the apps. (I may be wrong here - maybe there is something like the debian apt-get dist-upgrade which does both, but I was on a slow internet link and chose to use a DVD to do the upgrade.)
BTW, what happened to Mandriva?
mandriva is rocking and rolling - my family uses it and most of my clients use it. Unfortunately the C++ libraries are b0rked, so I can't use it on my laptop. (The chicken is available if you want it to upgrade any of your ubuntu systems)
