First attempt to upgrade Fedora 18 to Fedora 19 failed.  Booted from the DVD, which now has a much more useful installer than the previous version.  Yet still couldn’t find the “Upgrade existing installation” option.  It seems that only the new installations are supported, even though the disk partitioning tool found Fedora 18 partition.  Falling back on “fedup –network 19”.

Out of sync

Yesterday, I’ve spent a considerable amount of time trying to figure out if Crowd Favorite had yet released an update to the FavePersonal WordPress theme that I am using on this site.  It’s been quite a while since I installed it, and I didn’t remember any mentions of newer versions coming out.  After some searching across their website, I decided that there has been no update released yet.

Today, I see a notification in my WordPress administration interface of some updates available.  Guess what?  You are right.  Indeed, a new version of the FavePersonal has been released today.  But that’s not the end of my lack of sync.

I rush to the Crowd Favorite website once again, trying to find some kind of Changelog that would describe the changes that went into it.  And once again I fail.  Surprisingly, a company that does so many awesome things for bloggers, doesn’t have a blog on its own site.

Just as I am switching tabs away, getting slightly disappointed, I open up my Gmail and there is an email from Crowd Favorite with release announcement, changes, and all.

Now, if that is not me being out of sync, I don’t know what is.

P.S.: Please don’t take this post as bashing of Crowd Favorite.  It is not. It’s just me ranting about timing issues.  Crowd Favorite people and products are awesome.
