            Would you, by any chance, have a suggestion on how to avoid
            this behavior?
        Is there
            anything I can do so that when I do a yum install, it will
            always, and only, install the latest version of a certain
            package?
         
      
    you will need to provide somehow directly the epel-release package
    shipped by Fedora, bypassing the one from Centos. For instance by
    using something similar to

    
        yum install
https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel//7/x86_64/e/epel-release-7-10.noarch.rpm

    IMNSHO it would be less elegant that just using yum install followed
    by yum update, pointing directly to repos is well... meh :)
