Planning on taking my F22 desktop to F24 soon.
Just want to confirm that trying to skip a
release ist verboten. :(
Love it!! First three responses are:
1. Yes, designed to work that way
2. Not recommended
3. Better do a fresh install
:)
I think the real concensus is "F22->F24 is probably doable, but not
recommended". The safest way is to back up and do a fresh install.
The next best bet is to:
F22->F23
"dnf --refresh upgrade"
F23->F24
I haven't used the dnf upgrade mechanism to skip a release, but the
old fedup often times had issues doing that. Hence my reticence to
recommend it.
fedup (dnf system-upgrade) is supposed to handle that now.

How odd. I did a straight F22->F24 upgrade using dnf's direct commands.
In fact, I /tried/ to go F22->F23 at first. And the network wouldn't let me.
The only problems I had:
1. The graphical interface not loading by default. One of you told me
how to fix that.
2. A command called "systraycmd" not found when I tried to load a very
old executable--goes back to F10--in fact it's the old pwmanager program.
If anyone can help repair /that/, I'd appreciate it.
