Hi,

Isn't /var/cache/yum only used by yum? That is the cache for the machine itself and is not used by spacewalk-server.
This cache can be cleaned up by "yum clean all". More details are in "man yum".

The packages of spacewalk-server are in /var/satellite (or whatever you have as mount_point in /etc/rhn/rhn.conf). 
spacewalk-data-fsck will remove unneeded packages at this location.
