Do you actually read the messages you're responding to ?
This particular subthread had nothing to say on the subject, just that
if preserving yum "cache" data presents some interest (because of some
particular use cases) /var/cache was a particularly dangerous place to
put it.
I know Seth well enough to stop arguing when he writes no, never.
Since he insists /var/cache/yum/* must be preserved, I was pointing out
/var/spool/yum/ would make his choice more clear and consistent with
general system rules.
