Hi,
Should "yum clean all" really clean all or just the repos that are enabled?

There's several sizable directories for disabled repos that I was expecting it to
have cleaned. Before I file a bug, is this the expected behavior?
Cleaning just the enabled repositories is a feature, not a bug. For
instance, sometimes I find that my local updates mirror has out of sync
metadata so I like to clean out the metadata for that specific repo with
"yum clean", without any other repos being affected.
