\n\tWhich is perfect and we're at FC19 with RPM and glibc and libdb.  Now time to see if yum works so we try and get the FC19 repos this time to complete this job.  First we cleanup the old rpm's with yum clean all <\/strong>which worked perfectly.  Next check free space:\n<\/p>\n

\n\t\n<\/p>\n

\n\t [root@moto yum]# du –max-depth=4|sort -nrk1|head -n 10

\n\t6896    .\/rpmfusion-free
\n\t[root@moto yum]# yum clean all<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tNext check free space on \/var since that is where the FC19 repos will be downloaded:\n<\/p>\n

\n\t[root@moto yum]# df -m \/var
\n\tFilesystem     1M-blocks  Used Available Use% Mounted on
\n\t\/dev\/sdb6           9813  2023      7290  22% \/var
\n\t[root@moto yum]#<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tNow I also check that the rpmlib (librpm.so.3) also has the right string from the error that was plaging us earlier:\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\t[root@moto yum]# strings \/usr\/lib\/librpmio.so.3|grep -i CheckUnifiedSystemdir
\n\t[root@moto yum]# strings \/usr\/lib\/librpm.so.3|grep -i CheckUnifiedSystemdir
\n\trpmlib(X-CheckUnifiedSystemdir)<\/span>
\n\t[root@moto yum]#<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tAnd it does so filesystem and setupd<\/strong> would or should be satisfied in this update (hopefully).  Next run the yum upgrader:\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tyum –releasever=19 distro-sync<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tAnd let's hope this time it get's further along.  Deleting a few RPM's the system complains about certainly helps along the way to also clean up the system (As usual, we can get them later):\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tThen seeing how it now links certain critical folders together now vs the old way, we do some adjustments by running rsync<\/strong> then linking ourselves (we'll use sash if things get messed up) up to the \/usr<\/strong> ones:<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\t[root@moto lib]#
\n\t[root@moto lib]# du -sm .
\n\t3065    .
\n\t[root@moto lib]#
\n\t[root@moto lib]# ls -altri|wc -l
\n\t5538
\n\t[root@moto lib]#
\n\t[root@moto lib]#
\n\t[root@moto lib]# pwd
\n\t\/usr\/lib
\n\t[root@moto lib]# rsync -avhr \/lib\/ .\/
\n\tsent 300.34M bytes  received 184.49K bytes  6.20M bytes\/sec<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\ttotal size is 300.00M  speedup is 1.00
\n\t[root@moto lib]#<\/span><\/span>
\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tSure enough it breaks and we need to use sash<\/strong> again:\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\t[root@moto \/]# mv lib lib2
\n\t[root@moto \/]# ln -s \/usr\/lib lib
\n\t-bash: \/bin\/ln: \/lib\/ld-linux.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory<\/span>
\n\tSegmentation fault<\/span>
\n\t[root@moto \/]# sash
\n\tStand-alone shell (version 3.7)
\n\t> -ln -s \/usr\/lib lib<\/span>
\n\t> quit
\n\t[root@moto \/]# ln -s \/usr\/lib lib-test
\n\t[root@moto \/]# ls -altri lib
\n\t47 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Aug 10 10:39 lib -> \/usr\/lib
\n\t[root@moto \/]# ls -altri lib2<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tBut in the end the above works.  (Note we can use \/usr\/bin\/rsync<\/strong> because it's in \/usr\/bin<\/strong>).  We do the same with \/sbin<\/strong> and \/bin<\/strong>.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tAnd now that all is linked, installing the new filesystem RPM goes without a hitch:\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tAnd it did!  Good, so we're off to an upgrade.  ( Perhaps we could have done this step earlier but we could not have until RPM got updated anyway as we did.  :\/  ).  And we got a successful complete:\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tThere are unfinished transactions remaining. You might consider running yum-complete-transaction, or "yum history redo last", first to finish them. If that doesn't work you'll have to try removing\/installing packages by hand (maybe package-cleanup can help).<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tComplete!<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/span>
\n\tYou have new mail in \/var\/spool\/mail\/root<\/span>
\n\t[root@moto F13toF18]#<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tNow to do a full update.  We'll now try to upgrade with fedup<\/strong>.  We tried this before but it didn't work due to the substantial fundamental changes beetween the fedora versions.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tfedup –network 19<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tAnd we're off.  After it downloads stuff, it's time to reboot.  Sure enough, after a reboot we're at FC19, the GUI works, aside from some networking issues, but we are back in business.  The rest of the errors can be resolved with some basic OS tweaking which we'll leave for other posts.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tCheers,
