/var/log/fedup.log after fedup exits
So, your log says: [ 78.545] (II) fedup.yum:download_packages() beginning package download... [ 5032.012] (DD) fedup.upgrade:openpipe() creating log pipe It seems like it was downloading packages for about 1hr 20min. Which is not unexpected. You said "after it downloads the packages, it hangs for a very long while" - does this mean it showed output while it was downloading packages? How many packages were downloaded? About how long did it take to download them? The console output says that: xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-304xx-libs-304.88-5.fc19.i686.rpm | 22 MB 00:02:56 Coin2-2.5.0-18.fc19.x86_64.rpm | 1.8 MB 01:09:07 In-between the xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-304xx-libs and the Coin2 lines, there was no output for over an hour. I had assumed package download was completed at this time (after the nvidia line), as there was no indication of a timeout or anything that would explain the hour-long gap. To reach the nvidia line, it took about 20 to 30 minutes, with consistent console output throughout this entire time. There were about 3600 packages. According to that, it took an hour to download Coin2. The most likely explanation is that you got a very, very, *very* slow mirror. It'd probably be better if fedup used the same console output as yum - or at least showed current download speed and/or ETA, so you have some idea what's happening if you get a very, very, very slow mirror.

Yes. This would be an excellent solution.

Created attachment 769458 [details] fedup console output Description of problem: When launching fedup in preparation of an update, after it downloads the packages, it hangs for a very long while with no advance warning, no console output, and verry little or no IO activity from fedup, or other processes. I almost interrupted it if it weren't for people on #fedora-devel rushing me to leave it alone. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): fedup-0.7.3-4.fc18.noarch How reproducible: Only tried once. Steps to Reproduce: 1. # fedup --network 19 Actual results: fedup downloads packages, then does nothing for over an hour. After the long wait, it exits gracefully. Expected results: fedup warns that the next transaction may take a long time and cautions the user against interrupting fedup. Additional info: NA
