On my ThinkPad (old T43 with i915 graphics), running compiz definitely
breaks suspend/resume. Well, no - it *suspends* fine, but the display
never draws again after resume.

Current preupgrade bzr is packaged as preupgrade-0.9.8-2.fc[89]. They
should have been in updates-testing, but a Bodhi error caused them to
get dropped. They got restored today.

Oh, and for the record - you can just run 'sudo ./preupgrade-gtk.py'
from the preupgrade bzr clone, rather than installing it.

Glad it worked for you!
