What we need is an "apt-get dist-upgrade" equivalent.

*we have*

i currently count 450 dist-upgrade this way and the oldest
setups are upgraded from Fedora 9 to Fedora 18 - the only
stupid is that instead spend more effort in the yum-upgrades
waste all the time with preupgrade/fedup and whatever the
next inkarnation is known

And yet another issue is the fedora-distribution occasionally carrying packages
with greater NEVRs in older releases than in newer release.

what does *not* matter in case of "yum distro-sync" because it does also

It seemed to matter yesterday when I tried to update a Fedora 19 vm to rawhide.

Try it and see.
