Yum would not install an earlier than base-distro version
under any circumstances, since the thing it is installing must
have been placed in the repository by the maintainer. The
question is, what it is supposed to do in a circumstance when
it tries to install the current distro version of a package and
runs into something similar but non-standard and packaged
differently?
