It's fine, don't worry. :-)

Typical cases where YUM bitches about "you must run yum
complete-transactions" are when it got interrupted for one reason or
other while it was in the stage of installing RPMs.

In a few cases where I have run it in the past, it reverted a lot of
RPMs back to their previous versions. Only to update them all again
during the next "yum update".

I knew what it did and there was little sense for YUM to make the
downgrade of these particular RPMs first and then do another upgrade. It
was just a waste of time and 99.9% of all the RPMs it downgraded had
been installed just fine during the first run anyway.

After making that experience a few times I simply ignore the requests
for "yum-complete".
