Please explain how Jesse could possibly build the release discs such
that it would ever work to upgrade from F10+updates to F11 GA. This has
nothing to do with the release prep process, but how we version update
packages (we version them in such a way that an update shipped for
Fedora N-1 can often become versioned higher than the version of that
package in Fedora N release repos, and that's not a problem you can ever
'fix' in the ISO generation process).
