           Summary: CLI upgrade Mageia1 to Mageia2
           Product: Websites
           Version: trunk
          Platform: x86_64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: www.mageia.org
        AssignedTo: mageia-webteam at mageia.org
        ReportedBy: kbergen at telus.net


Description of problem:
More than one pass needed for CLI upgrade.


How reproducible: Upgrade using the suggested 
"urpmi --replacefiles --auto-update --auto" 
at a CLI.


Steps to Reproduce:
1.Change repositories from Mageia1 to Mageia2
2.Run 
"urpmi --replacefiles --auto-update --auto"
as per instructions
  In my case 316 packages were upgraded then urpmi restarted and another 2659
started upgrading which is normal behaviour.
  I noticed that several times I would see Installing and a list of packages
downloaded but no Preparing and no actual installing, it would just go on to
downloading the next series of packages. 
3.Run 
"urpmi --replacefiles --auto-update --auto" 
again.
  Again in my case, 1240 packages were upgraded. These packages appeared to be
cached as they started installing with no downloading.


It is my belief that the CLI upgrade instructions should be changed to suggest
running
"urpmi --replacefiles --auto-update --auto"
at least twice.
