Hello all,
As the title suggest, I've preupgraded a fully updated F11 to F13.
I'm getting an empty user list in GDM and pulse refuses to start.
I've relabeled the root file system and reinstalled
selinux-policy-targeted - both didn't help. Doesn't look like an SELinux
issue.

I was referring to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_use_PreUpgrade
but I have updated the project page to add the same note as well. The
package description is only updated in Rawhide for the next release. It
doesn't make much sense to update a package just for a description
clarification. If any updates are pushed for other reasons, the updated
description can go along with it.
Fair enough. I mentioned the other page because that's the one referred
to by the package README, but now that you've fixed it there's no
problem.

Thanks Rahul, but which Wiki page? https://fedorahosted.org/preupgrade/
doesn't say this, and neither do the rpm info and the README in the
package, so they would also need to be changed. And how many people are

OK. This not a dbus issue.
I'm getting partial functionality (GDM user list, pulseaudio is working,
but a number of GNOME application crash on startup), if I manually start
ConsoleKit daemon by issuing $ console-kit-daemon --no-daemon --debug
from a text console init 3.
It seems that ConsoleKit is silently dying during startup.
Any idea how I can triage this issue?
Someone already reported this issue [1], but the bug report didn't
really go anywhere.

I doubt it.
preupgrade-cli offered 3 options:
F12, F13 and rawhide.
I'm just quoting the rpm info. The README and the web page both say this
as well. It's unfortunate that the documentation isn't more extensive,
and that the docs and the software seem to say different things. In that
situation I'd personally be more conservative, but that's just me.
P.S. FWIW, I did a headless upgrade using preupgrade-cli --vnc.
The fact that it worked in this case doesn't mean it's supported in all
cases, especially given that it didn't work in the case you're asking
about.

You probably need to go F11->F12->F13.
