Same problem here. So you can't upgrade from firefox-21.0-3.fc18.x86_64 to firefox-21.0-3.fc19.x86_64, right? It's because /usr/lib64/firefox/browser/defaults/preferences is a symlink in firefox-21.0-3.fc18.x86_64 and a regular directory in firefox-21.0-3.fc19.x86_64. (Due to directory changes in Firefox 21). It looks like we have to migrate files from /usr/lib64/firefox/defaults/preferences to /usr/lib64/firefox/browser/defaults/preferences in some pre-install rpm script. If it helps, I went from F17 to F19 directly, via fedup and had the same problem with firefox. I ended up using rpm to remove firefox, then reinstalled it with yum. The old replacing-a-dir-with-a-symlink bug rears its ugly head yet again. *sigh* I'm sure you're familiar with it, but if not all the gory details are in bug 646523. Please expedite the necessary %pretrans hackery if you can; a lot of people on the users list are hitting this on upgrade, and a lot of people are upgrading right now since F17 just went EOL.
