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).
I tried yum clean all and it hasn't reduced the size of yumdb at all.
"yum clean all" will only clean yum cache for the repositories. That has
nothing to do with database of already installed packages.
Yum cache: /var/cache/yum....

According to this and little investigation, you should check each
/var/lib/yum/yumdb/<letter>/$checksum-packagename-$ver-$rel.$arch>/releasever
file and see for what version it was installed. My guess is that string
in releasever file will determine if file was from 12.0, 13.0, etc...
