| Regards, Jussi H.
Hi Jussi,
from the manpage:
clean
Is used to clean up various things which accumulate in the yum
~ cache directory over time. More complete details can be found
~ in the Clean Options section below.
In this section:
yum clean all
Runs yum clean packages and yum clean headers, yum clean meta-
~ data and yum clean dbcache as above.
It's all about *caching*. No information about installed packages will
be lost.
Really important information is stored in /var/lib/rpm/.
HTH,
Timo
