Actually, if I were running mysql I would configure it to have my databases on a
partition that doesn't get affected by upgrades. 

For example, I run plenty of VirtualBox VM's and I keep them on /opt/VMs.  That way
it is easy to exclude them when doing an install of the next version of
fedora....much like having /home on its own partition.
