Becauseful no to do a brute force deletion of files you think you do not need. See what package they are part of: rpm -qf --whatprovides PathName-Of-The_File_You_Wish_To_Delete And if the rpm package is not something you wish to keep, then rpm -e the-rpm-package Of course, you will encounter things like some other package depends on that rpm and ....so on and so forth. It will be up to you to decide whether to delete the package anyhow (like rpm -e --nodeps pkg-name) or to delete it and everything that depends on it: yum erase pkg-name If the file you wish to delete is not part of any package, then you have to make the call if it is something you wish to keep or not.
