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)
