This is so it can put in it's excludes, as well make sure there aren't any dangerous settings in the default yum.conf (which is /etc/yum.conf) I originally cleaned this /tmp/yum.conf.errata file up. But I have found that it often good for debugging. Since it removes the file before it is is remade, it shouldn't do any harm sitting there.
