Yes, it is ridiculous, but that is the only upgrade path (which isn't
really an upgrade path at all, is it :)
You can run the YDL 2.0 installer on your 1.2.1 box and RPM will attempt
to upgrade everything and will leave you with a booting but very very very
messy and clutter system which is probably more work to fix/clean then to
re-install.
I'd happily leave my 1.2.1 boxes alone *IF YDL PROVIDED SECUIRTY UPDATES
FOR IT INSTEAD OF IGNORING IT* Goes for 2.0 as well, there no reason that
updates can't be pushed out via Yup for 1.2.1 and 2.0 boxes.
