Hmmmmmmmm....... a very old version of Fedora.
When a new version comes out I upgrade to the latest using yum -
likewise with openSUSE, Ubuntu and Ubuntu ARM. I crawl from one
version to the next and only do a fresh install if I upgrade HD's.
Problem comes when new code requires something that is a level or
several higher than you have installed - upgrade beyond one or 2
versions probably doesn't work and you are forced to do a fresh
install then all the other packages required after that, plus fresh
setups.
You get changes like systemd replacing sysvinit which is seamless if
you are one or 2 levels back. With a fresh install there are many new
things you are presented with suddenly, more to deal with when you are
trying to get up and working.
