Upgrading via yum if you have SME Server 7.x clean (Excluding 7.3) install can now be done, you will first encounter this error:
--> Running transaction check
You should only do this if you are interested in helping with development and testing.
--> Processing Dependency: libstartup-notification-1.so.0 for package: libwnck
--> Processing Dependency: yum-metadata-parser for package: yum
--> Processing Dependency: startup-notification >= 0.5 for package: libwnck
--> Restarting Dependency Resolution with new changes.
--> Populating transaction set with selected packages. Please wait.
---> Downloading header for startup-notification to pack into transaction set.

---> Package startup-notification.i386 0:0.8-4.1 set to be updated
--> Running transaction check
--> Processing Dependency: yum-metadata-parser for package: yum

Error: Missing Dependency: yum-metadata-parser is needed by package yum

No new rpms were installed. No additional commands are required.

[root@example ~]#
You will need to download from the [smeos/i386/SME/RPMS/yum-metadata-parser-1.0-8.el4.centos.i386.rpm yum-metadata-parser] and manually install the package as below:
rpm -Uvh --oldpackage yum-metadata-parser-1.0-8.el4.centos.i386.rpm
Then type from command line:
yum clean all
followed by:
yum upgrade --disable "*" --enable smeos
Now you should be on your way to upgrading to SME Server 8betax :)
If you have SME Server 7.3 clean install you will be able to upgrade to SME Server 8betax without any issues.
You should only do this if you are interested in helping with development/testing and of course if you find a bug remember to report to our bug tracker.
