So, force the install of centos-release-3-4.2.i386.rpm ... verify
your /etc/yum.conf points to (for addons):
http://xxx.whatever.com/xxx/centos/$releasever/addons/$basearch
(you would do the same for all the other sections besides addons that
you want upgrades for ... like extras, os, contrib, centosplus,
updates ... the xxx.wahtever.com/xxx are madeup, the path
after /centos/$releasever/addons/$basearch is what is important)
Here is an example yum.conf file that works:
