The second time I ran "sudo yum update" after upgrading to FC-6

Metadata file does not match checksum

So I googled for
'yum "Metadata file does not match checksum"'
and got the advice
======================================
i did this
mv /var/cache/yum/* /tmp
than i run the yum install <appz>
======================================
which did indeed do the trick.
This leaves me slightly puzzled -
(1) Why did I get this error?
and
(2) Why did "yum clean all" not solve the problem?
What are the perms on the files/directories?
I haven't installed FC6 yet (prolly will do so this weekend :-), but I
do remember having to chmod the /var/named/slave directory to allow
for updates from the master BIND server on an default install FC4 box
about a year ago.
