FWIW, that probably didn't do what you thought.
On my machine I have EPEL configured, but disabled.
$ pwd /var/cache/yum/x86_64/6 $ yum --enablerepo=epel list > /dev/null $ du -hs * 8.0K base 20M epel 8.0K extras 21M local-base 56K local-extras 5.6M local-updates 0 timedhosts.txt 8.0K updates
We can see the cache has been populated.
$ yum clean all Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities, security Cleaning repos: local-base local-extras local-updates Cleaning up Everything Cleaning up list of fastest mirrors $ du -hs * 8.0K base 20M epel 8.0K extras 8.0K local-base 8.0K local-extras 8.0K local-updates 8.0K updates
Wait, the epel directory still has data!
$ yum --enablerepo=epel clean all Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities, security Determining fastest mirrors Cleaning repos: epel local-base local-extras local-updates Cleaning up Everything Cleaning up list of fastest mirrors $ du -hs * 8.0K base 8.0K epel 8.0K extras 8.0K local-base 8.0K local-extras 8.0K local-updates 8.0K updates
That's better.
So you might need to do "yum --enablerepo=elrepo clean all" to flush your cache.
