Yes.  Just because you think yum hasn't access that file in a while,
doesn't mean that something else hasn't, either, like updated (databases
used for whatis, locate).  Prune some more paths from /etc/updated.conf
so it doesn't catalogue your yum cache.  Or, somehow, separately use
tmpwatch on that path in a different way.
