Yes. Just because you think yum hasn't access that file in a while,
doesn't mean that something else hasn't, either, like updated (databases
used for whatis, locate). Prune some more paths from /etc/updated.conf
so it doesn't catalogue your yum cache. Or, somehow, separately use
tmpwatch on that path in a different way.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I
read messages from the public lists.
