Hi Duncan,

Well, I hadn't mentioned it for simplicity's sake. But my update procedure 
is (ALWAYS):

==================================================
df -m
yum clean
df -m
yum update xyz* *** 2 or 3 packages at a time
df -m
yum clean
df -m
==================================================


On this particular case I also ran command block below (pasted and adapted 
from /etc/cron.daily/tmpwatch )

==================================================
/usr/sbin/tmpwatch 120 /tmp
/usr/sbin/tmpwatch 120 /var/tmp
for d in /var/{cache/man,catman}/{cat?,X11R6/cat?,local/cat?}; do
    if [ -d "$d" ]; then
        /usr/sbin/tmpwatch -f 120 $d
    fi
done
==================================================


And noticed no difference whatsoever under 'df -m' .     :((

Thiers
