Maybe he simply didn't notice the fact that you had appended yum to the
command - Certainly it took me a few moments to look back at your email to
see what you had done.
Hope you don'tmind my saying this, and please take it the right way, but
frankly you are frequently your own worst enemy when it comes to error
reports on this list. You frequently simply state something "does not work"
without giving any indication as to why or give any feedback to help people
help you.
Simply pasting into your email the output you got from the command that "did
not work" would help immensely .. In this case you should have included
something like
[root@localhost ~]# yum package-cleanup

Loading "kernel-module" plugin

--obsoletes enable obsoletes processing during updates
--noplugins disable Yum plugins
--nogpgcheck disable gpg signature checking
None
which would have made it completely obvious what you had done wrong. Instead
you leave out all useful information and leave it to those trying to help to
just guess.
