Hello everyone,
I had to kill yum while it's on the cleanup stage (somehow it stalled so i killed it).
Should I be worried about anything in this situation? If so, how do I go about fixing it?
Thanks and best regards, Matt

I had to do that on one of our servers the other day after a 4.2 -> 4.3 Yum update. I was a little worried but after reboot the system seemed fine.
Eep. Actually, checking more closely, I appear to have ended up in the same state as Dave in the "futex.. How to remove lots of duplicate packages" thread...

Just hope that is all you've got wrong. The one time I did that, I ended up with a lot of files without selinux context assigned to them. It was a nightmare.

Indeed. "Crap" and its alias. I had a similar experience in updating 4.1 --> 4.2 and wound up reinstalling and restoring data in my /home directory. :-(

Thanks everyone for the reply.
Yes, I did get lots of duplicate packages but I've already fixed that. Basically, what I did was to run Adam Stoke's script to remove duplcate packages. It can be located at http://astokes.org/?q=node/49
After the duplicate packages were removed, I then did a yum -y update again - ended up downloading ~160mb packages all over again but the update went cleanly this time.
Best Regards, Matt
