Hello Martin Gregorie,

Now I just do the clean install. There are ways of making that easier
and speeding it up:
- put /home in a separate partition, i.e. use a custom partitioning
   scheme and keep a record of it in case your disk dies.
- symlink /usr/local and /user/java to directories in /home
- keep copies of hand-modified files from /etc someplace in /home
- write a script that is run after the clean install to:
   - put the symlinks back
   - run yum to install packages that aren't part of the standard distro
   - rebuild the username and group lists

Now installing a new version of Fedora involves:
- start the clean install by reformatting all partitions except /home
- after the install finishes, run "yum upgrade" and reboot
- run the script
- check, configure and restart your usual service collections
I had update probem too, but now I use on my Servers following:

/dev/sda1       /               Rescue
/dev/sda2       SWAP
/dev/sda3       /tmp

/dev/sda5       /               Production 1
/dev/sda6       /var/log        Production 1

/dev/sda7       /               Production 2
/dev/sda8       /var/log        Production 2

/dev/sda9       /home


So I have now three independant systems and I can update one  production
system and if it does not work I switch back to the other one...

Yes, it requires much more diskspace, but even on my expensive 147/300GB
SCSI drives it is worth and saved me many headaches...

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening

Thanks - I figured it out. I'm not sure what but there was some perl libs under /usr/local and I deleted those and the problem went away.
