Now, I know that 1.2GB is too less for fedup to do it's job. After some
cleanup on root partition (in my case /var is on /) I was able to
upgrade to Fedora 19.

My original intention was to discuss error messages produced by
fedup-cli which was misleading for me. Maybe it stated it needs 150M of
free space *more*, but I don't know for sure. I must check fedup's
source code.
