Ed appears to be correct.  I did "ls -la" on that directory.  The results are 
long, so I fpasted them in a text file here:
"https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/F74iI--P5MbZewNQIjjrpw";
That's a lot of files.  I'll ask the question the way I hope makes the answer 
short:
Which of those files should I keep?

Actually, none.

Once the rpm is installed, there really is no real reason to keep them around.

You can delete them all, especially the log files.  If you really want you can 
keep the last rpm file which
matches your running kernel.
