The first erases everything in the yum cache, including all packages that you may have downloaded but not yet installed. Downloading them again will be a waste of your bandwidth, and of the mirrors. Doing this is *rarely* *needed*. The second just removes the local data about packages, which will be recreated with the next "yum update..." (or yum install, or various other yum commands). Usually, this is all that's needed to work around a mirror or database problem. And before anyone offers that "yum clean all" bad advice, offer "yum clean metadata" advice, FIRST. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
