Be aware that higher/newer versions of Fedora (and RHEL/CentOS/SL) have used

Yes, that's true for my installation of Fedora 14 too. About 80% of
my packages are new in Fedora 14, with 9% and 7% from Fedora 12 and 13
respectively and a handful from older one too. I still have nearly
three times as many yumdb entries than the number of RPMs currently
installed, which must be for old packages.
Thanks,
Mike
if yo dont' want to go the full "yum clean all",
try "yumdb --help"
to see what options are available to you.
yum-utils must be installed for this (iirc).
