yum-updatesd leaking?

[Kevin H. Hobbs]

I think yum-updatesd is leaking memory. I noticed that my memory usage
has been going up for the last few days. KDE System Guard told me that
yum-updatesd was using over a gigabyte of memory. I killed yum-updatesd
and my memory usage dropped back down to a normal few hundred megabytes.

This workstation runs FC6 and discribes itself as:

$ uname -a
Linux gargon.hooperlab 2.6.18-1.2869.fc6 #1 SMP Wed Dec 20 14:51:34 EST 2006 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

After the kill there's plenty of free memory:

$ free
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:       1539080     844856     694224          0      36240     346364
-/+ buffers/cache:     462252    1076828
Swap:      3148732      25160    3123572

There are no pending updates that might have caused anything.
