I could be wrong, but Yum might be looking at the version field on the (installed) redhat-release RPM. You might try (for instance): rpm -Fvh ftp://fr.rpmfind.net/linux/redhat/7.3/en/os/i386/RedHat/RPMS/redhat-release-7.3-1.noarch.rpm Not sure if there might be any dependency blockers (as we're playing on the non-automagically-resolved level), but that's the jist of it.
