Is it yum's config file? OR just a config file of some kind from some
pkg?

If it is the former - then I'm surprised.

If it is the latter then are you sure it is marked as a config file in
the rpm specfile for the owning pkg?

If not then you can mark the file %config(noreplace) which should keep
the file from being changed.
