You are probably going to have to join the files up first:

Code:
$ cat transaction.txt.1* > joined.txt

And then split into N (5 in this example) pieces (here we avoid splitting lines with the 1/ format to the -n option):

Code:
$ split -n 1/5 -d -a 3 joined.txt transaction.txt.
$ ls transaction.txt.0*
transaction.txt.000  transaction.txt.001  transaction.txt.002  transaction.txt.003  transaction.txt.004

yum-complete-transaction

yum-complete-transaction(8)											       yum-complete-transaction(8)

NAME

       yum-complete-transaction - attempt to complete failed or aborted Yum transactions

SYNOPSIS

       yum-complete-transaction [options]

GENERAL OPTIONS

       -h, --help
	      Help; display a help message and then quit.

       --cleanup-only
	      Only clean up only transaction journal files and exit.

DESCRIPTION

       yum-complete-transaction  is  a	program  which	finds incomplete or aborted yum transactions on a system and attempts to complete them. It
       looks at the transaction-all* and transaction-done* files which can normally be found in /var/lib/yum if a yum transaction aborted  in  the
       middle of execution.

       If  it  finds  more than one unfinished transaction it will attempt to complete the most recent one first. You can run it more than once to
       clean up all unfinished transactions.

FILES

       As yum-complete-transaction uses YUM libraries for retrieving all the information, it relies on YUM configuration for  its  default  values
       like which repositories to use. Consult YUM documentation for details:

       /etc/yum.conf
       /etc/yum/repos.d/
       /var/cache/yum/

SEE ALSO

       yum.conf (5)
       http://yum.baseurl.org/

AUTHORS

       See the Authors file included with this program.

BUGS

       There  are  of  course no bugs, but should you find any, you should first consult the FAQ section on http://yum.baseurl.org/wiki/Faq and if
       unsuccessful in finding a resolution contact the mailing list: yum-devel@lists.baseurl.org.  To file a bug  use	http://bugzilla.redhat.com
       for Fedora/RHEL/Centos related bugs and http://yum.baseurl.org/report for all other bugs.
