    The PreUgrade assistant is a tool to help people upgrade from one
    release to
another and be sure to track important manual configuration changes they
    performed.



Don't confuse users unnecessarily.  Call this fedup-assistant or
something else entirely.

Yep, thats actually what we have in mind, just need to discuss and coordinate that with Will Woods and the anaconda team. Just wanted to make sure folks know about this planed "extension" of fedup.

Thanks & regards, Phil


It appears that some work has already been done on this by wwoods in the fedup repo. I have been helping him out a bit with the UI.

https://github.com/wgwoods/fedup

There is a prototype GUI in there that steps the user though process of preparing for the upgrade. Presently the GUI allows the user to choose where to install from (Online Repos, Optical Media or USB Media), Shows them the release notes, etc.

It is mostly fairly similar in concept to the old preupgrade GUI.

cheers,
