$ rpm -qi preupgrade

preupgrade prepares your Fedora system for an upgrade to the next
version by examining your system, downloading all the files needed for
the upgrade, and then setting up your system to perform the upgrade
after rebooting.

AFAIK preupgrade is only meant to work when upgrading from N to N+1. It
may work for larger gaps, but I wouldn't be that confident.
