Hello Michael,
Does this mean that distro-upgrade from F41 to F42 is supposed to work
at F41 release time (ideally at beta time)?
Yes, the system-upgrade functionality should be available before the Fedora 41
release date. We're planning extensive testing for this, including a Fedora Testing Day.
While our goal is to deliver the final system-upgrade functionality before the stable release,
some adjustments may be made during the Fedora 41 lifecycle to ensure smoother
upgrades from F41 to F42. Before executing the system-upgrade, users are anyway
advised to ensure that all installed packages are fully updated.
Jan
