Description of problem:

Comment 1 Will Woods 2013-03-07 00:57:07 UTC
Fails silently? The relevant messages should have been printed to the screen *and* put into the log. The messages look like:

Transaction test failed with the following problems
[...]
installing package iwl3945-firmware-15.32.2.9-16.fc18.noarch needs 100MB on the / filesystem

Since that last message is in your log, I have to imagine it showed up on-screen as well. Also, it would have exited with a return code of '3' to indicate failure.

So.. is that not what happened? Because I can't reproduce the problem myself.

Will, I don't know what Thomas saw, but I had the same problem.  Basically, fedup just stopped, didn't say to reboot or anything, and it was only when I looked in the log I found the messages.
