I would have thought right there in yum.log, but you'll have to get a
developer to say for sure.  If it doesn't, I'd file an RFE to get it to.
 I know it shows when I explicitly erase a package with yum.

Can't tell you why.  I always edit them with emacs from a command line.

Sorry, I don't use dkms, I use Axel's kmdl's (and 1 kmod from livna).
But if you think its a dkms problem, file it against FreshRPMs.
They'll tell you if its Fedora's fault or not.
