Sorry, I've been using Redhat/Fedora for 20 years.  Never once lost data like this.  This is bad programming, period !

    I very seriously doubt it because in Linux, gone is gone.  I hope I'm
    wrong here, but this is why you should never upgrade your system
    without
    first backing up your /home and anything else you consider important.

There's always a first time. And, programming errors aren't the only causes of data loss. It doesn't take much time to back up /home and the peace of mind you get from knowing that no matter what happens your data is safe is well worth it.
