I'm currently using Fedora 15 Beta on my laptop and I always use YUM to update my OS every week. I have a question that when official release of Fedora 15 will be available, should I reinstall that stable version on my laptop? Does YUM application automatically update the latest packages for my OS?

View 3 Replies View RelatedShortly after upgrading to Meerkat I discovered that my macbook timemachine backups became unreliable to the point of uselessness. After a bit of googling it appears that Meerkat's version of Netatalk (2.1.2) has some issues that bust timemachine. These issues are supposedly fixed in version 2.1.3. So... what is the best way for me to go about upgrading Netatalk past the official Meerkat release version?
The Netatalk project is at version 2.1.5. I could uninstall the Meerkat packages and just try to build Netatalk directly from source. However I'm a little leary about losing all of my existing AFPD filesystem meta-data. The Natty Narwhal repository appears to have version 2.1.4 which I've read should solve my problem. Is there any way to install the binaries from the Natty repositories? Can I download the source package from the Natty repositories and rebuild the package with Meerkat libraries/dependencies?
How much time does it take (typically) for Canonical to release an updated version of the Ubuntu kernel? What I mean is that the 2.6.34 kernel is already out (on kernel.org), but we're still on 2.6.32.

Then I realized that unlike my other Ubuntu machines, I don't have a "New distribution release is available" prompt in the update manager.
I went ahead and ran the 100 updates and rebooted and still don't see that option.

I'm planning to install Fedora 11 Release Candidate on my computer because I really need a working Linux system, right now. Once the final version is released, will I have to do a fresh install or do I just update the packages on my system to get the final version?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm currently running F11 x86 and want to update to F13 x64, so a new drive and fresh install and copy all the config & data from old drive. and Prey, a lot....I'll be installing F13 x64 later this weekend, But F14 will be out in a few months then F15 and so on.I've tried the upgrade option (x86 to x86 in the past) on the install dvd but it doesn't work and I wind up with a broken install and have to do a fresh install after saving most of the import data and config files, but I usually missing something and get hosed. Part of the problem could be using Nvidia drivers for video and several applications installed from several different repos.I've never been able to safely uninstall the Nvidia driver and still have a working system, let alone upgrade to a newer version and still get a visible desktop.
I was thinking that couldn't I just edit a yum file and point it to a new repository and have it upgrade the machine with out all the fuss?I followed a procedure once or twice on how to do a inplace upgrade, but that didn't work either. I'd like to keep the machine running the latest bits, but with all the pain and suffering I need a simpler method to do it. Is there a procedure or process I can run or follow to keep Fedora in sync with the latest release with out having to continuously swap disks, reinstall and copy critical data files?
I have an F14 system which was created by preupgrade in two stages from an F12 system. I had a couple of preupgrade crashes along the way, but was able to resolve them and the installation appears to be working fine except for some minor yum problems. Yum appears to be confused about which release it is at. It has a number of 'fedora-release' packages installed:
Code:
Installed Packages
fedora-release.noarch 12-2 @updates
fedora-release.noarch 13-1 installed
fedora-release.noarch 14-1 installed
[Code]...
If I include --releasever=14 in each yum operation, things seem to work normally. However if I leave this out, every yum operation creates hundreds of 'duplicate package' messages, and fails to proceed. I assume if I could remove the outdated release packages, the problem would be resolved - but I haven't been able to find how to do this.

I have 9.10 ubuntu installation - I have updated all packages and it is up-to-date. However, I have a issue with the latex installation, not latex so to say, it is the pstricks
Installed package :
texlive-pstricks
version - 2007.dfsg.17-2ubuntu1
Also it is the latest version available in the repo. However, this is not the
latest in pstricks. I find that version in the new 10.04 is 2009-7ubuntu3
Is there some way to get this installed in 9.10? Or I have to upgrade my whole installation?
