Did you read this before you started upgrade: https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_3_Release_Notes#Upgrading_via_the_Internet ? I think you did not :)

Hi, Yes, I read it. What is written that I didn't do correctly ?

* Before making any changes to your configuration, ensure you have all packages up-to-date and then install the mageia-prepare-upgrade package. * Once installed, reboot your computer and select the "Mageia 3 Upgrade Preparation" boot option. * After rebooting and confirming that the usrmove has completed successfully (check via ls -l / that /bin and /lib etc. are symlinks) you can continue. Did you do that? rpmlib(X-CheckUnifiedSystemdir) makes me think that your usrmove wasn't successful or you didn't run it at all.
and it's also in the errata

No, I didn't do that because : urpmi mageia-prepare-upgrade Pas de paquetage nommé mageia-prepare-upgrade I translate : No package named mageia-prepare-upgrade So I did what I wrote when I open the bug report. Did you read it ? I think you didn't :)
Resolution: INVALID => FIXED
ah indeed as they where moved from updates_testing :/ cf https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9744#c24

I think you didn't :) Next time wait or report problem :) Skipping important steps won't help ;)
To Manuel Hiebel : It means I should have added updates_testing to the urpmi database to get the mageia-prepare-upgrade package before I run "mgaapplet-upgrade-helper --new_distro_version=3" ?
yep, but packages where moved in updates, but without regenerating the repository info, it should be now fixed (and come soon on mirrors)
Thanks. From https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_3_:_Notes_de_Version_-_FR#Mise_.C3.A0_niveau_de_Mageia_2, I had understood that if magonline didn't inform me that a new version was available, I just had to "mgaapplet-upgrade-helper --new_distro_version=3"
