[ale] Fedora oddity

[Sean Kilpatrick]

Sometimes I just do not understand! :)

The system kept offering to upgrade to FC-14.
But when I tried it kept failing to load the necessary files.

So I ran <yum upgrade> and the FC-13 was upgraded -- some  64 files were 
changed to the tune of 305 MgB

There was no reminder to reboot.  Minutes after the upgrade was completed 
the reminder to upgrade to FC-14 reappeared and once again I clicked on 
"Okay".
This time the file download ran without interruption and at the end I got 
the expected reminder to reboot, which I did.

System rebooted normally and reports
kernel 2.6.34.8-68fc13x86_64 x86_64
system Fedora release 13 (Goddard)

WTF

As I am typing this note, once again the notification appears courtesy of 
KPackageKit that a Distribution upgrade is available
Fedora-14 (Laughlin)  and again I click on "Okay."

Then 110 MgB of downlater I am told that

"Ready to begin upgrade
Your system now has the necessary information and packages needed to 
complete the upgrade to Fedora 14 (Laughlin).
"When you are ready, you may reboot your system to complete the upgrade 
process.  Make sure you save any unsaved work before rebooting."

More later
