Can interrupted yum update be corrected?

I was doing a yum update (under FC-6)
when the machine hung - while updating rekall-sql, to be precise -
after a number of packages had been updated.
I had to stop the process.
I then ran "yum update" again, and it updated the remaining packages,
and cleaned up after them.
But the first lot of packages were never cleaned up.

I wonder if there is any way of re-running the cleanup part of yum
by itself, in these circumstances?
