So I noticed a little while ago fedup on my system was replaced by dnf-
plugin-system-upgrade. Running fedup gets you the dnf 'this command is
no longer the one to use use dnf system-upgrade...' I used it and am
running F23 Beta now. It may be too late. One thing though is I
searched for fedup first, found the wiki and it has nothing about using
dnf on it anymore.

Otherwise it seemed to run fine.

It didn't however relabel the system during the upgrade which caused a
few selinux messages. Should it?
