Not sure if 'a few minutes' but I do remember yum installing something else
in the morning, and when I did a yum whatprovides on the afternoon, it
downloaded again.
This is a major time waster. For starters, if I do a "yum (any operation
other than install)" then nothing will break if the updating of repo
indexes is SKIPPED ALTOGETHER.
