 Cool, it's probably worth noting that this hasn't happened for
Fedora/etc. etc. ... so you are on the leading edge.

 It's in yum's repo keychain, which is in <cachedir>/gpgdir by default
atm. (which may well change long term). You'll want to use the
"yum-keys" plugin to remove it, or:

 rm -rf /var/cache/yum

...will also work :).
