I've got a problem with up2date after upgrading an FC3 server to FC4.
I installed the new rpms spoken of at the bottom of this email.
I've edited the sourcesConfig.py file, changing releasever from "3" to
"4".
I ran up2date --upgrade-to-release=4
I also ran up2date --register
When I run up2date from the command line, I get:
Repository extras already added, not adding again
Repository updates-released already added, not adding again
Repository base already added, not adding again
When it starts it goes:
Baseurl(s) for repo:
['ftp://ftp.uci.edu/mirrors/fedora/linux/core/updates/3/i386/'
Notice it says 3 instead of 4.
Where and how do I change up2date to look for version 4 files instead of
version 3 files ?
This is killing me !
