Description Jens Petersen 2012-11-05 05:28:44 UTC

Description of problem:
This is probably because the infrastructure for upgrades is not in
place yet but current the error message from "fedup --network 18"
is not too friendly...

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.7-1.fc17

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run "fedup --network 18"
  
Actual results:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/bin/fedup-cli", line 253, in <module>
    args = parse_args()
  File "/bin/fedup-cli", line 179, in parse_args
    if '://' in args.instrepo:
TypeError: argument of type 'NoneType' is not iterable

Expected results:
Error message explaining no available repo?

Yeah, the error message isn't incredibly friendly but it's saying that the command isn't properly formed.

At the moment, --instrepo is required for fedup to run and it needs to point to a repo with a kernel and upgrade.img in the .treeinfo.

I have a side repo like that set up for testing:
http://tflink.fedorapeople.org/fedup/f18-upgrade/<arch>

Make sure that you replace <arch> with the arch you're using (i386, x86_64)
