While you have gotten an answer that works - I believe there is a 
cleaner way.

I don't remember the exact command - and it may require the installation 
of a utilities package - but if you remove the 3rd party repositories 
from your yum configuration, there is a command that will identify and 
remove orphaned packages - packages which do not exist in any of the yum 
repositories yum is configured to use.

Anyone recall what that command is?
