Thanks again for your help!!!
is it possible that you have extras set at a different priority than base ... you also have the protectbase installed along with priorities (not recommended).
You should have these settings for [extras], [base] and [updates] sections in CentOS-Base.repo:
priority=1 protect=1You should also (after properly configuring your repo files), use yum-priorities and remove yum-protectbase.
